Ever feel like your family is just surviving - keeping up with school, meals, and schedules - but missing a bigger sense of purpose?

In this episode, April and Jeremy get real about what it looks like to move from “just doing family” to becoming a family on mission.

They share the seasons when mission felt impossible, the small ways they started anyway, and the surprising fruit that followed.

You’ll hear stories of how their own family mission has shifted over the years and why it forged deeper bonds instead of pulling them apart.

If you’ve ever wondered how to live with more meaning as a family team, this conversation will help you see what’s possible.
