  • What is Going on in Haiti with Ryan Crim

    On today’s episode we’ll be talking about Haiti with Ryan Crim, who has spent time there and maintains contact in the country through friendships with many people and multiple charity organizations.

    Ryan Crim is a family physician. He graduated with a degree in ethics from Cornell in 1993, Georgetown Med school in 1997 and completed his residency at Wake Forest in 2000.

        Today’s guest on Finding Freedom is Kristy Lashober. Kristy was last on my show back in 2021 for Episode 266. Kristy Laschober made national headlines for selling drugs to a priest and went to federal prison for a first time offense. While serving her five year sentence, Kristy began writing to face the truth about what led her there and the shame she hid behind.

        Kristy is the author of an awesome new book titled: Perfectly Flawed: Uncovering Your Greatest Purpose.
