Trauma, Faith, and New Beginnings: My Conversation on Unleashing Potentials
Every podcast has its own "vibe," but my recent time on The Unleashing Potentials Podcast with Bernadette was truly special. Bernadette has a heart for stories that "you just can't make up," and she created a space where I felt safe sharing parts of my journey that I don't always get to discuss in professional settings.
Bernadette has a passion for connecting with people from all walks of life, which is evident the moment you meet her. She is energetic, caring, and deeply committed to showing how resilience and inner strength can pull us through even the darkest times.
The Conversation: More Than Just a Bio
When Bernadette invited me to talk about my book, "Bragging About You," and my business, How Healthcare Works, LLC, we ended up going much deeper into the "why" behind it all. We talked like old friends, covering everything from:
Growing up in Foster Care: We shared our common experiences as adoptees and the unique grief children face when navigating the system.
The Path to Resilience: My journey from being homeless and putting myself through college to working in a billion-dollar healthcare organization by age 32.
The Pandemic Pivot: How I moved 1,000 miles away with $2,400, my dog, and used a stimulus check to build my consulting business from the ground up.
Everything is Temporary
One of my favorite moments of the show was discussing the meaning of life. To me, it’s about the pursuit of peace and the ability to love and be loved. I hope that by sharing the "roller coaster" of my life, listeners realize that their current situation—no matter how unfair or hard—is only temporary. You are not defined by what happened to you, but by how you move forward.
I am so grateful to Bernadette for the opportunity to "unleash" these stories. She has a gift for helping her guests be their authentic selves, and I left our session feeling incredibly blessed.

I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I enjoyed having it. While you're there, please check out Bernadette's other amazing guests who are sharing their own incredible paths to potential.
