In this inspiring episode of Ignyte Your Why, I’m joined by someone who’s not only a close friend, but a true warrior--Tomas (Wise) Williams. After drifting away for a bit to focus on his gaming channel and personal growth, he’s back to share how his faith in Christ helped him fight through anxiety, depression, and self-doubt.

We talk about healing, rediscovering purpose, and the confidence that comes from surrendering to God — not the world. Whether you’re struggling silently or seeking that next step, this conversation will remind you: you’re not alone, and you are stronger than you think.
