We all make decisions based on multiple variables. Today, I'm talking about my story and how it influenced one decision I made 10 years ago. The impact that decision made on my life, the healing that has taken place in the last few years, and a lot of other big details of my life will show you just how bad things can be used for good. Plus, stay tuned until the end for big updates!

Devyn is a physical therapist, investor, and AirBnB host. For the first time ever, he joins the Sounds Familiar Podcast to talk about his struggles with mental health, how he found God, and the power of cold showers (It's probably not what you think). Devyn is truly an open book and covers many topics. He is transparent about the highs and lows of his life, especially in the last ten years and shares his story in order to help others find a way through their darkest times. Perhaps what is so admirable about Devyn is the joy he brings when encouraging others to persevere.

If you often struggle with feeling overly stressed, overwhelmed, stuck, trapped, resentful, taken advantage of, if you don’t really know who you are or don’t feel solid and secure in who you are, and if you notice yourself fusing your identity with others in relationships, then chances are there is a boundary issue. Most of us don't learn how to set boundaries, and actually the ways in which we grew up taught us that what other people were experiencing was more important than what we were experiencing. In this podcast, we discuss what needs to happen in order to set and maintain healthy boundaries so we can stop people-pleasing and start living more authentic lives.
