In this raw and honest episode of The Voyage Cast, host Matt shares his own story of growing up fast, carrying invisible burdens, and learning the hard way that real strength comes through vulnerability.

We talk about what it means to face adversity, how parentification shapes our lives without us even knowing, and why honoring your struggles—and your needs—is essential if you want to build a life that actually works.

Before the breakthroughs come the breakdowns. And sometimes the most courageous thing you can do is admit you don’t have it all together.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying too much or pretending you’re fine when you’re not, this episode is for you.

Listen in—and remember: honoring your story is the first step toward healing your life.
