Welcome to a 2-part deep dive that's as real as it gets. Join us for an unfiltered chat with Dr. Harold Eugene Vann II, a former pastor who's bravely pulling back the curtain on his life in his upcoming book, The Black Couch: A Memoir of a Pastor's Private Pain in Public Places.

In these episodes, Dr. Vann takes us on a heartfelt journey through his personal history—a saga filled with feelings of abandonment and inadequacy. This isn't just another tale from the pulpit; it's a raw, honest look at the human side of pastoral life. From the outside, it might have seemed like he had it all together, but inside, he was wrestling with unhealed wounds that sometimes led him down paths of promiscuity even amidst his sacred calling.

Part 1 sets the stage, diving into Dr. Vann's early experiences and the emotional scars that shaped his world. We'll explore how these inner battles influenced his actions and what it meant to juggle his public persona with his private pain.

In Part 2, we dig deeper into his journey of redemption and healing. Dr. Vann opens up about the courage it took to confront his past, embrace vulnerability, and ultimately find peace. It's a story of resilience, hope, and the powerful transformation that happens when you decide to face your truth head-on.
