206. The Power of Owning Your Story with Kevin Harris from Radical Mentoring

206. The Power of Owning Your Story with Kevin Harris from Radical Mentoring

Author: Zach Garza & You Can Mentor: Faith-Based Mentoring for Churches, Non-Profits, Youth Ministers, and Teachers October 19, 2023 Duration: 43:59

Everybody has a story to tell.  They have a past, a present, and a future.  They have significant elements to their story that shapes them into who they are today.  Telling that story, however, isn't always easy.  Sometimes those elements include trauma or suppressed memories.  Even so, your testimony is a powerful tool.  Through it, healing can come to others who have gone through similar experiences; especially if you have already received that healing.  This week, Kevin Harris from Radical Mentoring joins Zach to talk through the power of owning your story and how it can be leveraged in both a one on one mentoring setting as well as a group mentoring setting.
