EP 33: From Victim to Victor

Song of the Day: Mercy by Elevation Church ***TRIGGER WARNING*** This episode includes talks of trauma, suicidal thoughts, and the hard truth that comes from surviving trauma experiences. Conversations including gun shootings are involved. This is single handedly one of the most important episodes I've ever done. I introduce you to the man who saved my life, Retired Office Jim Page. In this conversation we talk about our journeys of healing, self discovery and the extremely hard discovery that we were sitting inside the misery of our victimhood. Want to learn more about the night that we met (the fancy way of saying it) listen to episode 11 of the podcast. This podcast aired March 27, 2024, just two days before our 14th anniversary day! For the first time in years, we are celebrating instead of crying. From victim to victor! Here is also the poem I wrote Jim in 2023 on our anniversary that we speak about in the podcast: Because you saved me I get to help change the minds of millions I get to love millions Frankie and Calvin exist to do the same Because you saved me There are people who experience less pain Who see joy in every day And get to experience my nonsense Because of you I love deeper Hug longer Volunteer for and am super obsessed with my local police officers I experience more joy than any one person should I liveAll because you saved me, Jim Page.
