Heartache, loneliness, single parent, divorce, emotional abuse, physical abuse, child abuse, sexual abuse, depression, anxiety, alcoholism, addiction, suicide, dating, marriage, poverty, self-doubt, failure, brokenness...the list goes on and on. Do any of these things resonate with you? Have you encountered any of this in your life...with you or a loved one? If so, then you and I have been in the same boat at some point in our lives. How about faith, hope, love, perseverance, self-confidence, success, friendship, forgiveness, happiness, belonging? Do you know any of these things in your life? If you don't, you should. You deserve to. But if not, then my goal by the time we are done walking through my journey, is that you will. Together, we are going to go back through my life as I tell you about my past, how I arrived at my present, and my hope for the future. I'm going to be real and transparent, and hopefully my vulnerability and candidness will help you with your own story.
