310 - Jeannine Coulter from Chasing Heroine tells her story! Part 1
Greetings, Congregation! This week, Jeannine Coulter from Chasing Heroine repays the favor and comes on the show to tell her story! She talks about growing up on debate team and being in youth group, and then how a divorce her senior year completely rocked her foundations. Much too dense for one episode, this one is going to be split up! So, enjoy part 1 and be looking for the next! music: Wolf by Now, Now and Waiting by The Family Crest www.patreon.com/churchandotherdrugs [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.
