EPISODE 80 - FEAR VS FAITH

Everyone experiences some kind of fear. It’s important to learn how to manage fear and the benefits of finding faith.

In this very emotional episode, which you MUST listen to until you get to the end, Garth and Dara are very open about their experiences. Garth shares a very personal story, one he has never said to anyone, and one he didn’t plan on discussing on the podcast.

It might bring you to tears, as it did to him when we were recording. At the very least, you’ll think about your own life and where faith fits in.
