Are You Letting Life Hold You Back or Pushing Forward in Faith? Today my friend Octavia aka Tay Tay shares her journey of overcoming homelessness, hardship, and self-doubt with faith as her foundation. From surviving Hurricane Michael in a tent with her children to rebuilding her life through the support of The ARC and her unwavering trust in God, her story is a lasting reminder to always have faith.
