In today's often shallow, performance-based culture, many of our teens find themselves navigating complex dual lives. In this episode, we hear from two Heartlight teens who share their experiences of living contrasting realities. One young lady, Ellie, reveals her journey of living two lives — balancing between being a missionary in Africa and engaging in risky behaviors back home. She talks about the pressures of maintaining a façade and the self-discovery she's undergone since joining Heartlight. Listen in!
