@codyacaldwellThe scene:We are sitting on the front patio of the newlywed’s first home together, dodging the SoCal sun - and not complaining about it one bit. Cody is one of the most self-aware and kind young men I’ve ever met. He has the biggest heart to help the world around him - his community and the world at large. And he’s shaping what he’s “doing” around how he is “being.” I’d like a world full of Codys please and thank you.

Change is tough. Unfortunately through that change I had to break off some friendships and certain things that were tying me down or keeping me from advancing on who I wanted to be.”Favorite saying:Bible verse, Romans 2:4 “Do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and long-suffering not knowing that the goodness of Jesus brought you to repentance.” (A personal reminder of choosing change)Support the showThank you for listening!  Please subscribe to support this project.Love, Sagewolf xoxo
