Episode 9: Faith and Empowerment in Healing with Stephanie Hunter
Stephanie Hunter is one of those people that lights up a room when she enters it. Her passion for all people, especially children to know their potential and value are palpable. She lives her life out of that passion authentically with an informed, inclusive, faith filled nature. I’ve known this about Stephanie since the day we met, so was not surprised to see this once again come through as we were recording.
What I learned from Stephanie though in this episode is that her journey had a dark chapter during her marriage to a pastor, where she lived one life in the fishbowl like public existence that is the reality of being a ministry spouse, while the actual truth behind the scenes was nothing like the shiny public face. She reveals what that did to her as a person….her mental, physical, and emotional health, and the aftermath of depression, anxiety, and physical sickness once she was able to escape this unhealthy situation.
She shares how her faith brought her out of the brink to a life of passionate self-care, dietary changes, feeding her soul with music and words that light her up, and fighting for all to know their intrinsic value so that they never travel down their own dark road.
Her story is a beautiful one of redemption when one has the courage to take secrets out of the dark and expose them so that your whole body and soul can be healed. Her contagious, authentic positivity as she lives inspired by what she has survived is a story all people should hear and learn from.
