In this inaugural episode, I share about how being told I was a failure became the catalyst for major life transformation and perhaps one of the best things that ever happened to me. But first, I fell into a deep depression and struggled with anxiety attacks and hopelessness until I hit my 'line in the sand' moment. I talk about what changed and how I started on a journey of re-discovering who I really was and how I began to hope again. Although my faith didn't waver, it wasn't in the church that I found compassion and transformation, it was through a "secular" community who loved and accepted me, and walked alongside me on my journey.
