Latoya Maddox was somebody I met in person at a conference, and I was immediately impressed, and I loved her energy, and the fight that resided in her. She was born with a rare joint and muscle disorder that affects her mobility. She is a wheelchair user and also struggles with mental health. She has a child with a disability who she loves dearly, and they have a strong bond. She actively advocates for those with disabilities and even helps provide services for them.

Our next episode is with Logan Hufford. Logan suffered from pornography and sex addiction, even though he had an amazing wife, he was constantly cheating, delving into porn, and just continuously going down a very dark path. We go more in-depth into those subjects, his newfound and strong bond with God, and his new mission today. His honesty is astonishing in the time we're in, and his love for his wife, and how their bond was put to the test, but they still stayed together is lovely.

This episode is with Jennifer Stevenson she is a single mother over 50 who has dealt with a lifetime of pain, both emotional and physical. Along my journey, I learned how to overcome childhood sexual trauma, Abuse, and abandonment through to adulthood. She has struggled, and she has been knocked out, but she's here today to share something that has helped her and many others get through life, and combat there pain.

She figured this all out when she was struggling to find out how one person could solve not only her issues, but the worlds issues with chronic pain, and she just started writing, until she had completed her own book, and now she's living life to her full potential, and loving it while doing it, because she now is helping others, so you can say she found her passion.

In this episode, we have two guests, Meridith, the mom, and her daughter Schuyler. Their story pretty much starts when Meridith gets a phone call and her daughter has been crushed underneath a boulder while in another country, and she is told that she is unlikely to survive. Schuyler is alive and well, and thriving. We do discuss all the damage that the boulder did cause, and how her life is different now, but with the support that she has from her mother and the rest of her family, she is still a great life. You talk a lot about the before, and after, and where they're at today.

Our next guest is Sara Freeman Smith, she's a delightful woman who has her method of dealing with life, and I'm always fascinated by how other people do it, even if it's not entirely for me, or maybe it is, but I'm just curious on what keeps them going, and what it is that they figured out for their survival and comfort. When she was in the peak of her career, and life was going really well for her, she had sudden significant vision loss, and she was told that she was legally blind, and her condition was incurable. She has not let that stop her one bit, she has the passion and determination to help others continue along their path, no matter what steps in front of them.

Allison is our next guest, and I met her on TikTok, I reached out to her after watching one of her videos, and eventually, we became friends. I got to know her a little more, and I wanted to have her on to share her experiences and struggles with mental health, and her physical conditions. She talks about discovering what suicide was, that she had those feelings at the very early age of nine years old, and that she has had depression anxiety, and chronic pain, her whole life. She also discussed how at times her family didn't take her condition, totally seriously, because she was so young, but after time she had to make them understand to extreme measures.

Born with Cerebral Palsy, Win Charles has defied the odds by becoming an author. Her memoir I, Win is an amazing story of how she remembers her life through the years of having a condition called “CP”. As a competitor in the Kona IronMan Triathlon and motivational speaker, Win Charles truly inspires many. Today Win Charles tours the country, speaking to schools and institutions to raise awareness about cerebral palsy and living a full life no matter what holds you back. She is also an advocate for veterans across the world. I appreciated talking to Win, because she's really genuine, and though life continues to throw curveballs at her, she just keeps on swinging.
