21 YEARS LATER, I’M FINALLY TELLING MY STORY.

On August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina changed my life forever.

In this powerful and personal episode of Let’s Talk About It, Tonya sits down with me, Johnny, as I take you back to the moments before Katrina made landfall, the fear and uncertainty as the storm hit, the struggle to survive, being transported by ambulance to LSU in Baton Rouge, and the emotional moment I was reunited with my family.

I also talk about what happened after the storm, why I decided to stay in DFW, my connection to New Orleans, and whether I have any regrets about not going back home.

This is a story that only a few people have heard before.

🎬 Getcha popcorn 🍿 ready.
This isn't just a hurricane story.
This is my journey. This is my story.

❤️ THANK YOU to everyone who watches, listens, shares, and supports our podcast journey.
