Paul Vermes talks with us about the process moving through pain towards growth. In his story, he takes us into some of the lessons he was taught, and how moving forward required finding a new way to think. Like Paul, the way we were raised, and the culture around us has left an impression on us, but later in life, we must decide how well those beliefs help or hurt us. His journey gives us some insight as to what that process of evaluating and finding new beliefs looks like.
