No one really talks about what happens when love and caregiving collide—but this is that conversation.

In this episode, Taylor shares part of our story—how we got here and what life has looked like navigating marriage and caregiving together. This isn’t a polished version, it’s the real one. The challenges, the weight, the moments that stretch you, and the strength it takes to keep showing up.

We talk about what it means to love someone well when life looks different than you expected, and how you learn to adapt, grow, and keep moving forward in the middle of it all. If you’ve ever found yourself in a place you didn’t plan for, this conversation is for you.

What happens when life as you know it stops in an instant? In this premiere episode, I take you back to the accident that changed everything, the spinal cord injury that followed, and the grueling journey to reclaim my independence. From the ICU to rehab, from frustration to small victories, this is a raw, honest story of resilience, faith, and discovering what’s possible when your world is completely flipped upside down. Join me as I share the moments that broke me—and the moments that reminded me life isn’t over, not even close.
