15:12 Share

In this deeply personal episode of Passion Struck, I share my harrowing experience of losing my home to Hurricane Helene. I reflect on the fragility of life and the unexpected devastation that can occur in an instant. Through vivid storytelling, I recount the overwhelming emotions of shock, grief, and fear as I returned to find my home unrecognizable and filled with water and debris.

As I navigate the path to rebuilding, I encourage you to reflect on your own life and consider how you can incorporate gratitude, adaptability, and strength into your daily routine. This episode serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of community and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of life's challenges.
