Transitioning into adulthood was never easy. You have people telling you what you should do and what you shouldn't do. People dictate what's good for you and what is not. Even though you, yourself, haven't figured it out yet. Where everyone has a say, whose voice would you listen to? Christine Kolenbrander shares her life experiences growing up with separated parents, moving out to their house at a young age, how her loved ones' support moved her, and pursuing sports aspirations. Tune in as Christine Kolenbrander discusses how she dealt with the ups and downs in her life, love as a power that could change a life, and how she applied the lesson she learned in life. Quotes:  “God brings beauty even in the ugly things.” - Christine Kolenbrander “The only way you can ever change a heart is by loving it.” - Christine Kolenbrander “If you try to please the world, you will definitely fall.” - Christine Kolenbrander Takeaways: Even though we are bombarded with challenges and obstacles in life, we can be assured that God will provide us with guidance to see the beauty of the life that he gave us. You can compel someone to change when you are powerful, but never the heart – because the only way to change it is by love. It is hard when you please people because the truth is, you cannot be everyone's cup of tea – it will only exhaust you. Conclusion: The separation of a parent could impact your life negatively. It could make you feel abandoned, rejected, and neglected. However, it doesn't end there. The love and support you receive from one of them are more compelling than ever. It will make you feel moved and change for the better. Above all, love is the most powerful thing in the world.
