S2 Ep 4: Yeah Mon: Love, Leadership & Leaving It Better Than You Found It
In this episode of In The Know With KO, I sit down with powerhouse couple Cassie and Troy Ganter to talk about what it really looks like to spend 19 years married and still choose each other every day in life and in leadership. Their love story proves that even the most broken beginnings can lead to a God-centered life full of purpose while building a legacy. Troy gets vulnerable about his battle with alcoholism and how discovering the power of the “F word” – FORGIVENESS - and building a real relationship with Jesus changed his life. Cassie opens up about praying over him during his darkest days, never giving up even when it felt impossible.Troy shares how addiction led him to surrender, why forgiveness saved his marriage, and how Jesus rewrote his story and Cassie was the steady anchor through it all.We also celebrate Troy’s journey dancing for a cause in the Boca Ballroom Battle, helping raise over $100,000 for the George Snow Scholarship Fund, and how their businesses continue to pour back into the community they love.If you’re feeling stuck, broken, or unsure… this episode is your sign to let go and let God.I promise… it just might be the best decision you ever make.

S 2 Ep 3: The Hardest Form of Love - Understanding Grief
On this deeply human episode of In the Know with KO, Kristen opens up about grief... the hardest, most confusing form of love we will ever experience. We will all walk through it, yet none of us are ever truly ready. Grief isn’t just about losing a person; it can come from the end of a relationship, a dream, a season of life, or a version of ourselves we thought would last forever.Grief is love with nowhere to land.It shapeshifts. It surprises us. It knocks the wind out of us.And despite what society tells us “be strong,” “get over it,” “move on” grief is not weakness. It’s actually an expression of the deepest kind of love.Kristen shares how grief has changed her, what it continues to teach her, and why it’s okay if your healing looks messy, nonlinear, or nothing like what people expect. This conversation offers honest encouragement, compassion, and a reminder that you’re not alone and you don’t have to give up, even on the days you feel like you can’t keep going.If you’re carrying grief big or small, fresh or decades old, this episode is a soft place to land.

From managing relationships to walking through loss, this episode is a reminder that every season teaches us something about who we are and how strong we can be. Because the more you know yourself, the more you can heal, love, and live fully.
