Summary

CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains sensitive content that may be triggering or offensive to some audiences. Parental discretion is advised.

"We can go through hard things. We can be the most horrible or the worst human. Christ still loves us and He still waits patiently for us to come back. It's been awesome going to the temple. It's been amazing! I ended up recently speaking at stake conference because addiction is rampant. I don't know any household that isn't either being touched by it in one way or another. It's either somebody in their family or something. And I feel, almost a duty, if you will, to want to try and help. I want to help people see it differently. I'm an ex-convict. I'm a felon, you know, but those words typically have a negative connotation, right? They stand for something negative. And I think we need to teach our kids or even just within the church that you know what? Good people can also struggle."

1:00.6	Surf clothing is one of our favorite brands. They have been supporting us since the very
1:05.2	beginning. We love them so much. I think one of the things that I like about surf so much is that
1:10.5	my husband is literally
1:12.3	obsessed. And I brought him in here to share his experience with serve clothing. So, Jesse,
1:18.8	tell us. I love serve clothing. This is the best shirt that I've ever owned for church and
1:24.0	professional purposes. It's got four-way stretch, which makes it really nice because not all the time. I'm at my desk. Oftentimes, I'm moving and out and about. So it's really nice to have a flexible shirt that moves with me. I know that it's got a mesh collar that I love. I think the purpose of that is really to prevent stains, but it's also super comfortable. It's way more comfortable around my neck. You know, if I'm at church or
1:44.9	business meetings with a tie or whether I don't have a tie, it's really comfortable. It's got arm vents,
1:50.2	which I love because I'm kind of a bigger fella. It helps me so that I can be a bit breathable,
1:54.5	and I love it. And also, you can get 15% off a shirt from serve by using the code comeback.
