How would you feel if you needed someone else's life to end in order for their organ donation to save your life? These and other stories are what makes ThoughtVolution so special and unique. The stories of regular people inspire and encourage, sometimes outrage or upset. Be a part of this journey and allow yourself to truly evolve your mind.

Jennifer is a true inspiration. Although she falsely describes herself as boring, she actually managed to overcome severe childhood trauma and abuse, a traumatic brain injury, her husband's colon cancer, and so many other rocks thrown her way by life itself ... and she did so while always staying strong and positive - for her own mental health's sake and for the sake of her family. Listen to this inspiring story of a lady that became our not-so-secret role model as we were recording this interview.

Dustin's story is fascinating in many ways. How does somebody who is a youth pastor and whose entire identity is rooted in faith, church, and the Bible wake up one day as a non-believing atheist? What impact does that have on the rest of his family as they continue their spiritual journey as Christians without Dustin sharing that belief? What is his life like in the Bible belt of South Carolina now that he no longer belongs to the large majority group of Christians living here?

No matter where you personally stand or what you believe in, I think we can all agree that opening up about something as deeply personal as the loss of faith takes great courage. Remember to always be kind.
