    Pam Wells

    🎙️ KEEPIN’ IT RIO PODCAST – EPISODE 257 Featuring Pam Wells In Episode 257 of the Keepin’ It Rio Podcast, Chuck sits down with author and advocate Pam Wells for one of the most powerful and emotional conversations we’ve had on the show. Pam stopped by to discuss her book, In Their Shoes — a deeply personal collection of first-person accounts inspired by people she met while hospitalized and battling severe depression. During some of the darkest moments of her life, Pam struggled with hopelessness, overwhelming emotional pain, and thoughts of suicide. But through patience, perseverance, and daily determination, she continues fighting forward while living with constant pain and adversity. Her mission today is simple but powerful: help people who feel alone realize they are not alone. This episode is raw, honest, inspiring, and a reminder that even in the darkest moments, there is still hope. Pam’s story is only beginning — and her work is already making an impact. 📚 Purchase “In Their Shoes” Here: Indigo – [Indigo](https://shorturl.at/XFAyc?utm_source=...)
