Unexpected Experts

Shannon is a close friend to both Andrea and myself and shares her story of being an ex-pat with her husband, Kevin, in Nigeria, Cairo, England, and Texas, the joys and challenges of being a mother to a special needs daughter, and her journey with breast cancer. This conversation is all about how to make the most of the days you have with the grace you've been given for that day and how to flourish on the other side of hardship and pain.
