247. Blind Pony As True A Story As I Can Tell. Samantha Hart

What’s the meaning of a name?  What happened to you?  We are a sum of our life's experiences, and it's up to us to turn them into positive experiences.  It’s not so easy to let go of trauma when it lives inside your soul!  Parents from opposite sides of the track, abuse, and running away from the farm, sometimes life can feel like a cruel joke.  Samantha Hart felt like the blind pony she raised.  She says there are a lot of blind ponies out there.  

Today I’m talking to a risk-taker, a farm girl, and an incredible mommy!  She says as hard as it is talking about generational trauma, she's glad she did.  Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space for Controversy.
