Episode Description from the Publisher

We often assume we’re alone when life changes.That’s exactly how I felt when I returned to college in the fall of 1988.My closest friends were gone, and I believed I was beginning the year without a support system. What I didn’t know was that others had already stepped into that role.In this episode, I share how my best friend’s family continued to watch over me, how an unexpected friendship introduced me to an entirely different culture, and why one conversation changed the way I think about being approachable.This episode is about the quiet ways people invest in us before we even realize they care. Sometimes grace arrives long before we recognize it.Call to Action:If this episode encouraged you, please follow the podcast, leave a review, and share it with someone who may need the reminder that they aren’t as alone as they think they are.
