The Loving Well Podcast

In this episode of The Loving Well Podcast, host Dr. Carrie Rosario sits down with Dr. Kim Sexton-Lewter, former candidate for the North Carolina State Senate, to reflect on the courage it takes to pursue a calling and the unexpected joy that can emerge along the way. Together, they explore what it means to step into purpose, embrace the journey, and recognize the people who stand beside us as we grow. The episode reminds us of what Fannie Lou Hamer said: “Nobody’s free until everybody’s free.” Joy, too, is a form of freedom. At the heart of the conversation is a simple but powerful question: What becomes possible when we say yes to ourselves?  It reminds us that our dreams, our courage, and our collective support for one another can open doors we never imagined walking through.Listen, subscribe, and join us as we explore the joy you didn’t see coming.
