A Fighter's Story
by Rob Childs
Become a Paid Subscriber: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/afightersstory/subscribeI started this podcast when I was barely able to walk and in the most pain I have ever experienced in my life. I needed to talk to people and find out how they were able to have the motivation to keep going. That's a lie.....I wanted to know how they were able to succeed beyond what they thought with the same experiences. Slowly I began telling more of my story. My story is still coming out but let me make it quick. I was abused from the age of 2-15 by my mothers boyfriend. Turned to alcohol and drugs and that's where the fireworks are. listen in and find me online @iamrobchilds and connect Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/afightersstory/support
