“I’ve been given a chance after chance…and in that I found my faith in God and my mission in this short life…to LOVE without boundaries.”

In today’s episode, the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast provide you with a truly inspiring and poignant story of resiliency and strength with the amazing Jeffrey Wyda! Joining the show from Massachusetts, Jeffrey is here to share his tumultuous, yet triumphant gifts of wisdom and compassion that came through the trauma he endured along his healing process. Diagnosed with severe ulcerative colitis as a child, and practically failing out of life as a teen, Jeffrey was given an opportunity that would forever change the trajectory of his life. Listen closely as Jeffrey recounts the time he spent working closely with children living with HIV/AIDS and hemophilia, and how it inspired him to not only become a nurse, but also to lead a life of love and compassion. Jeffrey also speaks about how he was able to draw strength from the most difficult situations and learn to “pay attention to intention.” This episode will move your soul!
