Welcome to Candlelit Coffee, the #1 podcast focusing on discovering and cultivating the authentic friendship in your marriage. We are your hosts, Eric and Kasie Hayes.

In this show, we will share part of our pasts with you to set the stage for where we were when we first met. We will share some hard truths about some of the things that happened to us and things that we were exposed to prior to getting married. It is important to us that you understand that we were not perfect when we met, our pasts are very heavy, but God still allowed us to find love in spite of trauma. We hope that you will find hope in our story. No matter where you come from, if you are committed to your personal growth and pursuing wholeness, there is hope for you and your marriage doesn't have to suffer because of past trauma.
