On this episode, we meet Craig and Khadijah Shareef. In their mid-twenties, Khadijah asked Craig to fill out an “application” just to date her. He didn’t have much at the time—working a low-paying job—but she saw his character beyond finances. Now, Craig thrives in his career, and together they’ve built a marriage rooted in intentional choices. We’ll dive into how that initial “application” became a blueprint for their lasting love.
