What happens when you survive cancer… but still feel like giving up?

In this powerful episode of Truth Behind the Mike, I sit down with Glen Kirkpatrick—a 2x cancer survivor who faced something even more terrifying than disease: deep depression and suicidal thoughts.

Glen shares his raw, unfiltered journey:

Being diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma at 30
Beating cancer… then watching it come back
Falling into severe depression and suicidal ideation
The moment everything nearly ended
And how God met him in the darkest place imaginable

This is more than a survival story—it’s a story of intervention, rescue, and redemption.

If you’re struggling with:
- Depression
- Suicidal thoughts
- Cancer or chronic illness
- Loss of purpose
- Or questioning your faith

This conversation is for you.

👉 You are not alone. And your story is not over.
