Welcome to the Growing Together podcast. I'm Kaelin. And I'm Kaira.

And we're here to walk with you through life, faith, relationships, and money.

out our brand new book, This Kind of Love. We're confident that the stories of hurt and confusion

singles, new relationships, and other young adults struggling to find freedom and purpose in life.

Pre-order this kind of love before July 13, 2021, or if that date is passed, you can purchase it

wherever books are sold. We have a game-changing episode in store for you this week, so without further
