    Carlos and Alexa Penavega
    May 15 2025
    Today we were starstruck because we sat down with two stars (who we now consider friends) Alexa and Carlos PenaVega! Alexa played Carmen Cortez in the hit film series, Spy Kids, and Carlos starred as Carlos Garcia on the Nickelodeon series Big Time Rush so it’s safe to say they’re a power couple and our inner-child was freaking out a little. What we love most about this couple is how authentic they are, even in an industry where being yourself and standing strong in your faith can sometimes cost you a job. This couple has been through so much and their unwavering peace, joy and love for one another is truly an inspiration. We could have talked to Alexa and Carlos all day, they are seriously the best. Check out their new book, “Love Is The Point” out August 22, 2025!

    257 | Parenting Advice from Grandparents You Didn't Know You Needed
    Apr 23 2025
    There’s so much we can learn from the older (and wiser) generation of grandparents! Today we thought we’d tap into that wealth of knowledge by asking grandparents to send in their best life advice and sharing them on the podcast! It was so sweet to read advice from people who have already gone through the season we’re in now and we were reminded of what’s most important in life. We hope this episode makes you happy like it did for us 🙂 Love you guys! Shawn and Andrew Want the best pillow ever?
