It may not be appropriate for younger audiences. Childhood experiences impact us even as adults. For some, those experiences are motivational. For others, they can be devastating. Our guest this week survived a difficult childhood but found her way to light and hope. Even in the midst of her pain, her true self never stopped hungering for light. In this episode of the Infuse Compassion podcast, Tammy Rene shares how a single act of generosity—her grandfather paying for college—opened the door to freedom from her childhood challenges and led her to others who helped her find light. Through writing, music, and faith in a loving higher power, she began “recycling her garbage”—transforming the worst parts of her story into hope for others. Tammy now offers lifelines of hope both to others who experienced similar difficulties and to those who love them, inviting all of us to see people clearly and believe in their worth. In this episode you’ll learn: - How Tammy transformed her challenges into a source of light and hope - Practical ways survivors can begin healing and reconnecting with their true selves - How to support someone through difficulties without fixing, comparing, or questioning their reality - Why your presence, vulnerability, and belief in others can be a life-changing gift More about Tammy: https://www.youtube.com/@TammyRene915 https://www.buildonthelight.com tammy@buildonthelight.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tammy-rene-buildonthelight/ Learn more about your ad choices.
