018: Peter + Melissa Awad : Faith, Family & 30,000 Miles in a Van: Building a Life You Don’t Want to Retire From – with Peter & Melissa Awad
Description
What happens when you mix four kids, 30,000 miles of open road, homeschooling on the fly, and a deep-rooted faith that refuses to break under pressure?
In this inspiring episode of the Our Family Invests Podcast, we sit down with Peter and Melissa Awad—an entrepreneurial couple who traded the hustle for what really matters. Peter, a five-time founder, recently exited his last company to pursue executive coaching for Christian businessmen through Whitestone Coaching, while Melissa leads with quiet strength as a business owner, mentor, and homeschooling mom.
From meeting on spring break in the Bahamas (as predicted by a stranger 👀) to navigating their daughter’s miraculous recovery from a stroke, the Awads share how they’ve built a life rich in purpose, rooted in family, and guided by faith. We unpack how they homeschool while running businesses, support each other’s growth, and stay grounded through seasons of grief, transition, and joy.
If you’ve ever wanted to slow down without giving up your ambition—this one’s for you.
