The sudden loss of a close friend can send shockwaves through the heart. Under the veil of anonymity, I recount the life and untimely demise of a person who was not merely a confidant but an inspirational force in my existence. Through this raw and candid narrative, we navigate the complex waters of human connections and the unpredictable nature of life, where joyous beginnings can lead to tragic ends.

From the genesis of our friendship born in the shadow of one another's memorial to the business ventures that intertwined our lives, the tale takes several harrowing turns. The absence of my friend on my wedding day hinted at a darker story, one that would unravel over a fateful phone call during my honeymoon. What follows is a sequence of events involving justice sought, lives upended, and a community in upheaval. This recount is not simply a memorialization; it's also a reflection on loyalty, the pursuit of justice, and the profound impact of those we cherish.

I have always been in love with stories and the art of storytelling. Like many people though, I was never able to incorporate that love into my career path; until recently, when storytelling evolved from a natural flair to the cornerstone of my career. Venturing through the lush landscapes of Bali, I discovered that breaking away from my comfort zone could reignite inspiration in unimaginable ways. My personal struggles would ultimately become a source of strength and inspiration to others. Witnessing the effect that my story would have on other people would ultimately help me find purpose within the art of storytelling.

The darker chapters of my life would lead to the most significant healings. In this episode I get candid about overcoming childhood trauma, reshaping my social identity, and my battle with Crohn's disease, laying bare my shift towards holistic practices over conventional medication. I get honest about my feelings toward the western approach to "medicine", the negative effects that it had on my health, and my discovery that healing occurs more from lifestyle changes than from medicine. As we conclude with the transformative power of yoga and its role in personal growth, I share a piece of my soul with the recitation of "Almost Broken," a poem that mirrors the resilience within us all. Join me in this intimate exploration of self-discovery and the extraordinary impact of aligning with our true calling.
