On this special episode to kick start Season 3 of the podcast, Desiree chats with Mary Marantz, author of the book 'Dirt', on the struggles of childhood and how the experiences of our past shape our identity for years to come. Mary's story of poverty, grit and grace will inspire you to see loved ones in a different light and examine your own life to see where outside influence has shaped who you have become. God's redemption and beauty intertwines in each one of our stories. Desiree and Mary chat about all of the many seasons of life where our past wounds can creep into our actions, reactions and relationships.
