Jeremy and Maddy look back at their missteps in their life and tell it only the way they can. For many years, they have been seeking external validation and attaching their self-worth to people’s opinions of them. They share how they came to realize this issue and the steps they are taking to improve their lives. Sometimes, we all need to look back so that we can move forward.
