    43. Julie shares her incredible story of overcoming chronic fatigue syndrome, extreme mold illness, having to get rid of most of her possessions and how that led her to write a book about it.

    Can you imagine your house making you sick? Or being so susceptible to something that merely being near it can paralyze you? Julie tells us all about how she realized she was chronically ill as a result of mold exposure, leading to her having to move out of her house and ultimately get rid of most of her things. This path of discovery, along with learning to manage her chronic fatigue syndrome, lead her to write a book to share her experience with others. 
    Julie Rehmeyer is the author of Through the Shadowlands: A Science Writer's Odyssey into an Illness Science Doesn't Understand, about how she combined science and intuition to find her way through chronic fatigue syndrome and mold illness. She is an award-winning journalist and a contributing editor to Discover Magazine. Her work has appeared in the New York Times, the Washington Post, O Magazine, Discover, Science News, Wired, and many other publications.

    41. Tracy is a newly published author who discovered a process of healing and restoration through writing her first book, “What Just Happened: Living the Redeemed Life When All Hell Breaks Loose”.

    Listen in as we discuss how Tracy’s book was born out of a difficult season of her life and the journey to get her thoughts out of her head, onto paper, and into a book. She began journaling to work through her faithwalk and other life events and realized that she needed to tell her story.

    Tracy Graves Stevens, new author, encourager, and overcomer is on our show today. Tracy’s mission in life is to let people know ‘they can’ - they can get up when life knocks them down and they can do the perceived ‘undoable’ because their faith allows them to do all things. She will discuss how she is reclaimed, restored, and rejoiced in her Redeemed life.
