Ep. 27: Jordan Killebrew & the Living With Purpose Now After the Struggle of Then

This week’s guest is community organizer, Jordan Killebrew (he/him). On this episode, Jordan let's us in on the journey he’s traveled since growing up within a context that was quite oppressive to who he was, having to endure many attacks to his humanness. His younger self set his sights on college as the place he just had to make it to to get through it all and for things to change. This, it turned out, was true for him - his Second Adolescence and his own healing journey began in college. Jordan invites us into what this healing has looked liked, and what has been helpful for him to get to the place he is at now where he is truly living a life his younger selves might dream of.
