There is Purpose in your Pain feat Emeka Nnaka - Ep 33

There is Purpose in your Pain feat Emeka Nnaka - Ep 33 - Feb 11, 2020 We have a super special guest for you this week! The Amazing Emeka Nnaka is on the show with us today.  If you don't know who Emeka is you have probably never seen The Ellen Show!  Emeka is a beloved Tulsan now, originally hailing from Georgia. He moved here to attend ORU. Not long after that, he had an opportunity to play semi-pro football and after a short 3 weeks into that opportunity, he tackled someone was his injury left him paralyzed in need of a wheelchair. His story doesn't end there. After a lot of soulsearching and hard work put in, he obtained his master's degree in counseling. One day he was asked to come help serve some teenagers in a local church's youth center. Kids being kids, asking anything, they asked him about his story. The more he shared his story the more he found there was purpose in his pain.  Now he uses his story, life experience, passion and the education he received to motivate, inspire and serve others!  After things were going okay for a while, he got into a wreck, lost his van, his place or residence was lost due to a fire, and his caregiver got injured all at once basically. But instead of that getting him down, he remembered the original injury didn't take him out so this couldn't either.  The nest thing he knew, he found himself on the Ellen show because over 50 people from the Tulsa community had written in. He shares soo much more of his story in this episode so we will leave it at that but it isn't just a story, it's real help.  This episode will serve you for the rest of your life. It's one of those things you listen too over and over no matter what season you're in because the value of the wisdom, the depth of his speech will resonate with you for sure.  There is a little sports talk at the beginning of the show but the rest of it is "The Juice" as he said.  Thank you for tuning into our show.
