Last week, Lindsay Stadel shared the raw and powerful story of surviving her suicide attempt, the moment her life changed, and the truth behind her darkest season. This week, she returns to continue her journey, but from a different perspective. Today is about what came after. The rebuilding. The forgiveness. The trust she had to earn back. The marriage that strengthened. The businesses she and her husband Tim built with their family. And the purpose that grew from her pain.

Beyond the incredible work she does in agriculture and logistics, Lindsay is a mental health advocate whose mission is to help others choose life, faith, and purpose every single day.
This week, we explore how her healing journey transformed her family, her marriage, and her businesses, and how sharing her story is now changing lives far beyond her community.
