What happens when a young boy silenced by poverty, pain, and shame grows into a man who dares to reclaim his voice and then uses it to help others find theirs? In this raw and redemptive conversation, motivational speaker Chris Michael Rushing shares how the battles of his past from childhood trauma to addiction and divorce became the very soil for growth, self-love, and a new identity rooted in purpose. Now a devoted father, coach, and speaker, Chris opens up about how the military, fitness, and soul work helped him embrace the man he once resented and rewrite his future. If you've ever struggled with worthiness or wondered whether deep change is possible, this episode offers proof that healing is real, and it begins from within.
