    The Lost Episode W/ Stephenie Barba

    We have unearthed, a what was once to be thought of as, a lost episode from 2017, with Stephenie Barba. In this episode Anthony and Stephenie chat about the obstacles and adversity that she faced as a single parent. Stephenie gives us a candid look into what it was like to deal with being a new mother who found herself homeless, poverty stricken, and simply feeling lost and worthless. In the time we spend with Stephenie, she speaks about what it truly means to make a life for yourself throughout all the struggles that life can hand to you, she speaks on what it is like to rebuild and thrive. Born into the world to lose, she finds it in herself to win. Join us on this candid interview.  If you are looking to connect with Stephenie, her contact info has updated since 2017.
