Rise & Thrive; Brooklyn Thorpe
In this episode, Brooklyn shares her life experiences from growing up in Texas with a loving family and support system to serving a mission in Germany, during the same time as two of her sisters. However, her mission took a turn when, just three months into her mission, she got seriously sick, enduring four weeks of this debilitating sickness. Eventually, Brooklyn was to return home to seek medical help for a condition that continues to affect her life today.
Throughout her life, Brooklyn emphasizes the significance of leaning on God and loved ones during challenging times. She speaks about the transformative power of fasting and prayer in navigating life's trials.
