I recently sat down with my friend Tammy Kennington—who is an amazing mental health coach, award-winning author, and podcaster—for a deeply personal conversation that truly touched my heart.
Tammy shared so openly about the heavy things she’s overcome:
* Childhood abuse.
* Struggles with self-image.
* The daily reality of chronic illness.
What struck me most is how she found her way through these hardships. Her faith wasn’t just a part of her healing; it was the key that unlocked it, and it continues to fuel the incredible work she does today to help others.
The heart of our conversation came down to one powerful message: the importance of seeing yourself through God’s eyes.
