Unwritten

How a Single Conversation Shattered My Shame


Listen Later

In this episode of Unwritten, Trevor Barreca sits down with Alex Sanchez to explore how one hidden struggle, one unexpected inner voice, and one father’s startling confession transformed his life forever.

Whether you’ve carried shame, secret struggles, or a quiet sense of failure—or you’re simply curious about how God’s mercy still moves powerfully today—this conversation offers a vivid reminder of grace that heals at the deepest level.

What You’ll Hear:

  • How Alex spent years hiding feelings of failure, disappointment, and not belonging beneath a polished exterior.

  • The moment an unmistakable, pulsating inner voice urged him, “Tell your parents the truth”—and how that led to the unraveling of two years of hidden drug use.

  • His parents’ stunning response of mercy—including his father’s tearful words, “I failed you as a father”—and how that moment evaporated Alex’s lifelong insecurities and sparked his family’s transformation
