In this moving episode of The Nancy Levin Show, I’m joined by my dear friend and extraordinary speaker, Darryll Stinson — a former Division I athlete, bestselling author, and two-time TEDx speaker whose transformational journey from trauma to truth is nothing short of breathtaking.

Together, we explore the alchemy of vulnerability, the healing power of self-connection, and how Darryll has turned personal pain into powerful purpose. From surviving suicide attempts to becoming a voice for mental health and emotional authenticity, Darryll offers wisdom, compassion, and clarity for anyone ready to share their story, speak their truth, and embrace their wholeness.

This conversation is a testament to the power of story, the necessity of self-care, and the liberation that comes when we stop hiding and start honoring all parts of ourselves. If you’ve ever wondered how to alchemize your lived and learned experience into a message that heals — this episode is for you.

What we explore:

• When we’re in right relationship with ourselves, we become more free from external judgment.
• Visibility isn’t about ego—it’s about purpose. We must become fully expressed in order to fully serve.
• Vulnerability lives on a spectrum. It’s not just about sharing trauma—it’s about being open to your truth, power, and presence.
• Transformation begins in the mirror. Darryll shares how mirror work helped him move from self-hate to self-love.
• You don’t need to wait for crisis to change. Your catalyst can be a conscious choice, not just a breakdown.
• The future belongs to fully-expressed, emotionally intelligent leaders. The next wave of speakers will embody deep self-awareness and divine availability.
• If this episode moved you, take a moment to pause and connect with your own story. What part of you is ready to be seen, heard, and healed?
