Exploring the High Seas and Grandparenthood

Dirty Laundry, Clean Confessions

Join us in the laundry room as Candy and Mark toss their grandparenting advice into the spin cycle! This week, we are airing out the joys (and wrinkles) of grandparenthood, sharing the loads of wisdom Candy and Mark gained while helping raise their grandson and granddaughter. They unfold the differences in bonding with boys versus girls and how their unique relationship with each grandchild sometimes needs a little delicate washing.

The couple irons out how they juggle their roles as grandparents while still finding time for themselves, revealing that balance is key—even if their advice occasionally shrinks in the dryer. Candy and Mark also share how they navigate the fabric of family boundaries to stay involved without tangling up too much.

Plus, they chat about their shared love for cruising (almost 40 trips, including plenty of Kid Rock voyages!) and their excitement about taking their granddaughter on her first cruise. This fun-love couple does it all from lake vacations, road trips, and international trips to renew their vows. To top it all off, Candy and Mark rewind to the beginning of their relationship, sharing the hilarious and heartfelt story of how they first met and overcame challenges early in their loving relationship.

Grab a basket and tune in—you won’t want to miss this cycle of love, laughs, and lessons!
