On previous episodes I\u2019ve spent a lot of time speaking about Geren Krelle\u2019s story from my book, Krelle\u2019s Inferno. In this episode, I talk about mine. More specifically, I give you background on the emotional challenges I faced growing up and into adulthood that brought me to a crisis point where I blew up my life. I love analogies, and the one that best serves my story is that of a forest fire that I was responsible for lighting by giving it all the fuel it needed to burn my life down. That created fertile ground to start again, similarly this episode lays the groundwork for the rest of the season.
I start by focusing on how the seeds of my decade-long rebuild were sown and took root in the midst of that all-consuming fire.
