This Life-Changing Conversation Will Help You Make Peace With Who You Are

Hey, it's your friend Mel and welcome to the Mel Robbins Podcast. I am so glad you're here because you're about to meet someone, unlike any other guest who has ever been on the Mel Robbins podcast. Now, I first discovered him on Instagram a couple years ago. He was standing there, playing the ukulele, totally relaxed, smiling and singing this beautiful song. He had the most extraordinary voice, warm, folksy, wise, kind, gentle, yet strong.

He had the most peaceful presence and just unbelievable energy flowing through the screen, right at me, through my phone, my shoulders dropped, I was immediately hooked, an instant fan, there was just something about him. So I started following him, and then I learned more about his story. I learned that he was born into a brutal civil war in Liberia. He narrowly escaped the life of a child soldier. He was rescued and brought to the United States as a refugee.

And that, as life-changing as all of that was for him, it didn't mean a happily ever after. It meant a whole new set of challenges. Identity crisis, isolation, grief, so many questions, the biggest one being, who am I? And if you've ever felt lost, you've probably asked yourself that question too. And that's why the conversation you're about to hear is life-changing.
