What happens when the pain you never healed finally catches up with you?
In this gripping episode, Paul Leslie takes us back to a childhood marked by trauma, addiction, instability, and the kind of emotional wounds that don’t go away just because you grow up. From a devastating family tragedy to parents battling darkness, to joining the army at 19, and hidden addictions, Paul spent years trying to outrun a storm that lived inside him.
But what happens when everything you’ve tried to hold together finally falls apart? And what moment pushes a man to confront his demons?
Join us for Part One of Paul’s story — a look at how unhealed wounds shape us, and how transformation often begins in the very place we break.
