Hope Johnson

In this transparent and powerful conversation, author and speaker Stacee Goetzinger speaks candidly about her journey battling an eating disorder that started in her preteen years and eventually led to emergency inpatient treatment, where she had to fight for her life with everything she had. Stacee's story is one of hope, perseverance, and dependence on God, and she shares hard-fought wisdom she has learned over decades of relying on Him to be her strength in the battle. 

Whether you are battling an eating disorder, love someone who is, or simply want to learn more, this episode provides hope, practical encouragement, and a powerful testimony of God's faithfulness, kindness and strength in our darkest struggles, whatever they may be.
