Description

Welcome back to Growth Where Planted Podcast! For this episode, we welcome one of our first guests in our show, Jim Shoopack, as we talk about Personal Identity and how it can play a role in how you look at yourself and how you view others looking at you.

20 years ago, Jim suffered all of the symptoms of depression. It is miraculous that he didn’t take his own life. He prayed and prayed and prayed, and even had what would be considered an out-of-body experience that gave him hope for the future. Once he had that experience, things started to improve.
