Why I Stayed - Stay Series pt. 2 of 4

from The Helix Podcast: Evolve Beyond Adversity · host Octavio "Chino" Gonzalez

In this deeply personal episode of The Helix Podcast: Evolve Beyond Adversity, the host shares his story of growing up battling PTSD, depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts from a very young age. Living through chaos and inner turmoil, he spent years self-destructing and lashing out at a world he didn’t understand. But even in the darkest seasons, God was working behind the scenes. This episode reveals how faith, resilience, and purpose transformed pain into leadership—and how the same strength that carried him through can help others survive their storms and step into the life they were created for.
