My Crucible: The Events That Changed Everything For Me

This is the first episode of the podcast. It is unedited, no music, and simply raw.

In December 2024, everything changed. What doctors first misdiagnosed as an ulcer turned out to be bleeding in my esophagus. My body crashed, my blood count plummeted, and I spent nine days on life support. I shouldn’t have made it—but I did.

This episode is where I share the full story: the pain, the fight, and the perspective I gained from nearly losing it all. It’s the beginning of my comeback, and the reason I’m here today to talk about strength, resilience, and the will to keep going.
