Growing up as a pastor’s kid, Wesley felt intense pressure to fit a mold, leading him to lose touch with his true self. When his marriage hit a breaking point, he was forced to confront his pain head-on. Through faith, counseling, and the support of a recovery community, he discovered how to break free from shame and find healing—and he’s here to share those lessons with you.
