In today's discussion with Steve and Chris Alessi, David Roman unpacks the powerful lessons and principles that helped him and his wife Paola to adopt their two daughters and form a beautiful family.
For over 400,000 children in the foster care system in the United States, having a family that loves and cares for them is a dream they can only hope to experience.
But family is always everybody's business, even when circumstances aren't ideal.
So we're highlighting the story of one of the dear friends in our family business, who has stepped forward to bring two precious children into a family they can call their own.
Today's guest, David Roman, and his wife Paola, always desired to raise a family of their own. After a long and arduous battle with infertility, they made the decision to consider fostering and adoption. They now have two daughters - Karis and Dawn - who have a forever home and parents that know the power of patience and sacrifice.
