Originally from Orange County, California, Courtney Draughon ended up seeing the world through the Air Force before meeting my nephew and having a beautiful baby boy!
In this episode, Courtney and I reminisce on our first impressions of each other as well as our recent time together in Doha, Qatar, where she currently lives.
We talk about her childhood in Orange County, California, and her high school years.
Courtney shares about how the Air Force gave her a sense of safety and tells stories about boot camp and her tour of duty in Kuwait.
Courtney also gives us the gossip on how she and Davon met, how he proposed, and their wedding ceremony!
Courtney also gets real about the difficult labor process of delivering their child, and how his presence has given her immense purpose and meaning.
I have to say this rapid fire was the most difficult of any episode because Courtney had DEEP questions for me!
And finally, my favorite part of the episode was Courtney's parting words, where she challenges us all to be less offended by opinions we don't like and how to desensitize ourselves to the noise of the world rather than obsessing.
