Your Story Was Given to You for a Reason — Debbie Adams on How Faith and Hardship Lead You to Your Calling

Some of the most powerful books ever written started not with an idea but with a life that demanded to be shared. Debbie Adams knows this firsthand. Her own writing was born out of hardship, faith, and the quiet but persistent sense that her experiences were not just hers to carry, but hers to give away to people who needed them. She joins Stacey Chillemi to talk about what it means to listen for God’s voice in the middle of difficulty, how to recognize when a personal story is also a calling, and why so many people sit on experiences that could transform someone else’s life because they underestimate the value of what they have been through. What she shares about the power of being still enough to hear your own calling, how gratitude and faith work together to move you from surviving your story to sharing it, and the practical steps she took to go from life experience to published book will give anyone who has ever felt like their story might matter, but is not sure what to do with it, a clear and deeply encouraging place to start. Your story is not finished. But this episode might be where the next chapter begins. Website: LEARNINGS: How did the idea of writing a book come to Debbie Adams?
