    Even young people need this info so they can make sure their parents and grandparents are in a good place. Chad Hardy is the guy who somehow makes Medicare make sense. (We know. Miracles are real.) As the founder of Oakline Benefits, he’s built a reputation for guiding seniors and their families through Part A, B, C, D, and all the fine print in between, with clarity, patience, and just enough humor to keep everyone sane. A Central Texas local, Chad is known for being the guy who answers the phone, explains things twice if needed, and still asks how your grand kids are doing. When he’s not meeting with clients, you’ll find him at community events, coaching youth sports, or quietly proving that “doing the right thing” is still good business. Smart. Kind. And somehow… fun to talk Medicare with.

    Guest:

    Today we’re joined by Kimberly Lloyd and Kim Yancey — two Dripping Springs moms who have built their families through fostering and adoption, one brave “yes” at a time. Between them, they’ve fostered over 20 children and adopted 11, and their story started when they were each caring for a sibling pair — a little boy and his newborn sister — and decided to walk the journey together.

    Kimberly is a former pediatric medical professional and full-time advocate for her bustling crew of nine. Kim is a longtime surrogacy and adoption professional, a six-time gestational surrogate, and writes adoption home studies while raising her own blended, beautifully busy family.

    They are here to talk openly about the joy, the heartbreak, the humor, and the holy chaos of foster care, and what it really means to build a family with intention, compassion, and a whole lot of faith.
