Host Troy L. Love sits down with James, a social worker who shares his journey from childhood abandonment and family wounds to grief after the death of a beloved stepfather. They explore how anger, betrayal, addiction, faith, and self-compassion shaped his healing. Through candid conversation, James describes steps toward peace — setting boundaries with inner judgment, choosing faith over the numbing rebel, and using hardship to grow, serve others, and reclaim safety and purpose.   Thanks to the Artists from Artlist and Storyblocks for the background music.
