I'm Cara. Daughter of The King, wife to Mitchell, Mama to three of the coolest kids, and chaser of the sun. For as long as I can remember, I've been fascinated by the hearts and stories of people. Not just what appears on the highlight reel, but the raw, unfiltered and unguarded narratives that aren't always shared so boldly. It has been such a gift to be an ear, a shoulder, and a sounding board for those going through unyielding obstacles, and to be able to love them through it. That, to me, is paradise. Welcome to A Slice of Caradise! I'm so glad you're here.
