In this episode, we welcome Ben Jeanty, the Founder and Host of the ‘I Came Home to Heal’ podcast. Ben shares his journey of growing up in a conservative Caribbean Christian family and his challenges in searching for his identity and sense of home. I share my experience of seeking peace and solitude from a young age, rather than feeling at home in different spaces. We discuss the importance of finding a personal sanctuary, the danger of using external structures to hide, and the critical need for balance in loving and serving others without compromising personal well-being. Join us as we explore the meaning of home, the impact of church culture on mental health, and the importance of creating a safe space for healing and growth.
