#1 Breaking Cycles: How My Sister Beat the Odds to Build a Life of Purpose

from We Rest On Sundays · host Ben Collier II

In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, I sit down with my sister, Kia, to explore her incredible journey of resilience, sacrifice, and triumph. Kia's story is one of perseverance in the face of unimaginable odds. From growing up with a mother battling addiction and a father imprisoned for 15 years, to stepping into the role of caretaker for our family, Kia's determination to rise above her circumstances is truly remarkable. We discuss the challenges of navigating an unstable childhood, the sacrifices she made to support our family, and her journey to becoming a doctor and nurse practitioner. Kia also shares how she found strength in her faith, overcame a painful divorce, and ultimately found love again. This episode is a raw and honest conversation about family, sacrifice, and the power of hope. Kia's story serves as a reminder that our past does not define us—it shapes the strength we carry forward.
