In this episode of the On The Rise Podcast's Faith-Driven Leaders Series, host Nick Stromwall sits down with his friend Cameron Clark — a former digital marketing entrepreneur and agency director who, after losing his job due to debilitating chronic migraines in 2019, found himself in an unexpected and transformative season as a stay-at-home dad. Cameron shares with remarkable honesty what it felt like to watch his professional identity disappear, how comparison and isolation nearly swallowed him whole, and how a single perspective shift — maybe you're being planted, not buried — began a multi-year journey toward a contentedness he never expected. He also shares a powerful framework for how faith-driven leaders can experience the presence of God in the middle of their darkest seasons, and practical advice on how to find and approach a mentor. A deeply personal and quietly profound conversation.
