This episode of the Addicted to Growth Podcast, will truly teach you how to "Stay Strong, Stay You"!

I get to introduce you to Becca Boston, an incredible individual that is transforming the way we look at learning disabilities and countless others.

Becca Boston sees her learning difference as her superpower, as it has taught her many important lessons throughout her life. Through having dyslexia and an auditory processing disorder, she knew from a young age that vulnerability and asking for help was a strength. However, advocating for herself outside of the classroom got difficult. Becca was involved in a domestic violence relationship that she hid behind a smile for far too long.

Eventually, Becca made the decision to walk out into the war of recovery to overcome her trauma and addiction to self-harm. In 2020, as Becca was continuing to rehab her life, she began telling herself, "Stay Strong. Stay You. Because You Got This." It was her personal reminder that her strength was giving her pain a voice, as her mental health was taking a toll as an essential healthcare worker. As she began to share her motto and message on social media, people were beginning to resonate and be impacted. Today Becca is a Social Media Influencer, Best-Selling Author, International Speaker, Podcaster, and Coach.

Becca believes that it is her God-Given mission to help encourage and inspire people to recognize that their strength is giving their pain a voice, while staying true to themselves. Yet, she also hopes that she can help people recognize that being different makes a difference.Q&A automatically added to new episodes on Spotify

In this TENTH episode (I can't believe we're already 10 episodes in!) of the Addicted to Growth Podcast, we welcome Monica Macias. I would describe this conversation as stimulating your faith! Monica is a living testimony of stepping out on faith and stepping into her purpose, all through God's will.

Monica Macias is a woman of God that loves and adores her two children. After experiencing a traumatic event in December 2020, she took time out to isolate and find herself and her identity. This event caused her to realize that she had no idea who she was, and she focused on her journey to creating a relationship with God. As she challenged herself to change her mindset, she figured out her purpose in this life and began to help others in becoming the very best version of themselves. Monica is a speaker, sharing her story in hopes that others will take the leap of faith and "Do It Afraid." Monica is the co-host on the Stay Strong. Stay You. Podcast and is an International Best-Selling Author. She partnered with Becca Boston on Stay Strong. Stay You. and assists in helping individuals within the private community give their pain a voice. Monica Macias recently took a huge leap of faith to focus on her energy on fulfilling her purpose and launched her business, God's Will Designs. Monica Macias also holds a leadership role with her church, IBelong Christian Family Church. I know you'll love this episode, discovering ways we can grow by moving forward from past hurts.
