We live in a world that idolizes the hustle and lives for their social media feeds. Many people project a version of themselves online that just isn't the real them. Relationships aren't always rainbows and butterflies, sometimes your kids can be little assholes, and being a business owner is stressful AF and while many people know these things....they aren’t often talked about in a real way. We are Chris and Lara Cerna and we are dropping the filter when it comes to convos about relationships, parenting, business and faith.
