This episode is different.

This one is real.

I sit down with my partner, Lee, and we open the door to the parts of our relationship most people hide.

We talk about:

• Him losing his mother at just 12 years old

• How unresolved grief showed up in his adult relationships

• His infidelity

• Me bringing a child into our home without telling him first

• The tension, the healing, the hard conversations

• And the choice to stay, grow, and rebuild anyway

This isn’t a fairytale love story.

It’s a faith-in-the-middle-of-the-mess story.

Because love isn’t proven in the sunshine…

It’s revealed in the rain.

She lost 10 years of her life to addiction.

Not just to pills—but to shame, survival, and silence.

Lara’s addiction led to federal prison, the loss of custody of her children, and a moment so dark she was nearly set on fire in her sleep. She has lived the kind of pain most people never talk about… and some never survive.

But prison didn’t have the final word.

Trauma didn’t have the final word.

Addiction didn’t have the final word.

In the darkest place of her life, Laura encountered a God who didn’t walk away—He walked toward her. What followed was not just sobriety, but surrender. Not just freedom, but faith. Not just survival, but purpose.

This episode is for anyone who thinks they’ve gone too far…

For the woman carrying guilt she can’t shake…

For the person who feels forgotten, discarded, or unworthy of grace.

Lara’s story is proof that God still restores what life tried to destroy.

🎧 Watch now and witness what happens when faith meets freedom.

He was handed more than 40 years in prison - with an outdate of 2067..

In that moment, Harold Doby III believed his life was over.

In this raw episode of the Break Phree Podcast, Harold takes us inside the weight of a sentence that felt like a slow death. The shock of the courtroom. The reality of prison walls. The mental fight to survive knowing freedom was decades away.

But somewhere in the darkness, something shifted.

Harold opens up about incarceration, faith, and the unseen battles that come with being forgotten by the system — and how that dark season became the foundation for a new purpose. Now free, he’s committed to giving back, mentoring youth, and using his story to reach those still trapped in hopeless places through his book Blessings in the Dark.

This is not a polished success story.

This is survival. This is redemption.

This is what it looks like when hope refuses to die.
