“Make Sense of Your Story” with Adam Young, LCSW

Today Dan and Rachael welcome longtime friend and Allender Center
Facilitator Adam Young, LCSW, to the podcast for a deeply moving
conversation about the unexpected plot twists that shape our
stories—and how they can become sacred invitations to connection,
healing, and transformation.


 


Adam, who is a counselor, author, podcast host, and an NFTC
Certified Instructor & Facilitator with the Allender Center,
joins us to talk about his new book, Make Sense of Your Story:
Why Engaging Your Past with Kindness Changes Everything.


 


He vulnerably shares about a life-altering moment that brought
him to his knees, and ultimately, into deeper communion with God.
Together, Adam, Dan, and Rachael explore why revisiting the
painful parts of our stories isn’t a detour from growth, but the
very path that helps us make sense of who we are today and
imagine who we’re becoming. Whether it's the story of our family
of origin, our bodies, our culture, or our relationship with God,
Adam offers practical and grace-filled ways to approach our
histories with kindness instead of shame.


Join us for today’s conversation to consider how you can engage
your past with even more courage and kindness—and to discover
freedom, healing, and hope along the way.
