Ever wonder what it actually looks like to build a family business while raising a family, all outside the lines of a conventional life? That’s the daily reality for Cliff and Stephanie Ravenscraft, and they’re pulling back the curtain. Family From The Heart is an unfiltered audio journal from their living room, where conversations about parenting young kids collide with the practical realities of entrepreneurship. You’ll hear the unscripted moments-the triumphs, the spilled milk during an important call, the brainstorming sessions, and the hard decisions-that define their unique path. This isn't about presenting a perfect image; it's about the messy, authentic work of creating a life that fits who you are, not just what’s expected. Tuning into this podcast feels like sitting with friends who are figuring it out as they go, offering a genuine look at integrating work, family, and purpose without sacrificing the heart of either. For anyone curious about weaving business ambition with intentional parenting, or simply inspired by families who choose their own adventure, the Ravenscrafts' journey provides a compelling, real-time narrative. Stephanie also hosts Thriving Mosaic, which you can find in your favorite podcast directory.
