In this heartfelt and deeply personal episode of Freestyle Fridays, Chris Welton opens up about the recent passing of his aunt—a woman who profoundly shaped his life. At a time when he could have ended up in foster care, she stepped in and took him in, despite not having the financial means to do so. Her courage, sacrifice, and unconditional love changed the course of his life forever. Chris reflects on what it means to be a protector—not just in words, but in actions. He shares how this defining moment from his childhood has inspired him to live with greater intention, to show up for others, and to now carry forward the legacy of protection and strength his aunt embodied. This episode is also an invitation for listeners to look inward and ask: 👉 Who protected you when you needed it most? 👉 How can you now step into the role of protector for someone else? Tune in for a powerful message on gratitude, legacy, and becoming the person others can count on.
