This recording took place in front of a live studio audience during the 2025 Single Moms Retreat. Micah and Mykelti discuss forgiveness–what the Bible has to say and the journey of God's interactions of forgiveness with humanity. Jesus is the epitome of what this looks like. They discuss misconceptions of forgiveness and why some people struggle with it. Micah and Mykelti share personal experiences of working through situations requiring forgiveness–both toward others and of themselves–and how God brought them freedom and healing in those times. They also discuss what it looks like to live a life of forgiveness, walking in humility and committing to have an unoffendable heart.

With summer swiftly approaching, many families will be celebrating high school graduations and making plans to send those children off to college. But many are not prepared for the reality that parents lose their ability to access health and financial information related to their children after those children become young adults.

They will give insight as to why having a Power of Attorney, Health Care Documents and a Will in place is essential for many young adults.We know this time of year can be exciting and stressful for many families and adding one more item to the to-do list is not preferred, but using this major life event to (i) educate a young adult about estate planning and (ii) ensure continuity in care is vitally important. Tune into this week's episode to learn how Wiggin and Dana's Private Client Services team can help clients and their young adult children plan for the future.
