A Body That Betrayed Me – And the Fire That Wouldn’t Go Out

From the moment David Bainbridge took his first breath, pain was there—uninvited, unrelenting, and misunderstood. In this raw and intimate first episode, David opens up about what it's like to be born into pain—not just physically but emotionally, spiritually, and socially. Diagnosed with a rare, invisible illness that few understood, David spent decades fighting not just for answers but for his identity, his voice, and his right to live fully.

But buried in the struggle was a spark. A fire. A rebellion.

This is the beginning of that rebellion. The moment David stopped trying to fit into a world not built for his body—and began building something powerful of his own.

💥 If you’ve ever felt broken, isolated, or doubted by the world around you—this episode is for you.

🔗 Join the rebellion. Your pain doesn’t make you weak—it makes you unstoppable.
