Episode Details

Heather's husband, Steve, was so blown away by Connor's three episodes that he suggested a recap episode to highlight the emotional journey and lessons learned from their perspective. They both also thought it would be great for all of the resources mentioned to live in one place.

Heather shares:

• An in-depth look at specific moments during their journey
• Which decisions were fantastic and which were underwhelming at best
• Specific takeaways and thoughts to ponder
• A look into her soul the soul of her family
