In this powerful first installment, Justin and Jennifer open the door to the early chapters of their story—the ones written long before betrayal, breakdown, or breakthrough.

They take listeners back to their childhoods, where broken frameworks of love, safety, and self-worth were quietly forming. From emotionally unpredictable homes to early trauma that shaped their view of God and relationships, Part 1 lays the psychological and spiritual groundwork for everything that came later.

Jennifer unpacks the weight of early attachment wounds and the silent grief they carried into adulthood in Part 1. Justin shares the cost of military service and how unaddressed combat trauma and PTSD began to fracture his identity in Part 2.

Together, they explore how early pain affects emotional regulation, intimacy, faith, and marriage—and how the lies we internalize in survival mode can sabotage everything we try to build in peace.

This isn’t just a story of pain—it’s a call to name what shaped you, so you can begin to heal it.

Topics: Childhood trauma, military PTSD, attachment theory, marriage strain, emotional dysregulation, identity confusion
