PodCasts, Wounds in the Way /

In this compelling episode of Wounds in the Way on the StrongHome Network, hosts Apryl Jones and Melissa Reed sit down with special guest Actor and TV Personality, Mike Hill to tackle the journey of male maturity and the struggles that often come with it. Mike, known for his candid nature, opens up with full transparency about his own story—admitting he didn’t reach true maturity until he was over 40. He reflects deeply on his past relationships, including marriages to three wives, one of whom was supermodel Cynthia Bailey, and reveals how immaturity led to broken trust and infidelity.

As he shares how these challenges impacted his connection with his daughters and was almost the demise of their relationship, Mike describes a turning point in his life where he committed to making lasting, positive changes. He credits a portion of his personal growth and increasing faith to his spiritual connection with Apryl, who helped guide him to church and encouraged his journey toward a stronger relationship with God.

In this episode, they also take on the question: Should a man leave behind his female friends when he finds his wife? And should a woman do the same with her male friends when committed to a man? Tune in for an honest, heartfelt discussion that dives into real-life experiences, spiritual growth, and the journey toward authentic, lasting maturity.

Confidently Shaping Self-Concepts

Identity is a powerful force that shapes every aspect of who we are and how we interact with the world around us. It is the deep-rooted understanding of ourselves, formed through memories, experiences, relationships, and values, and influences how we behave, think, and perceive others. Often, we look to external sources—like what people say, what we own, or what we do—to define our worth. However, true identity transcends these surface-level markers. It is built from a foundation of self-awareness and is nurtured through the relationships we form, particularly in our formative years.

In understanding who we are, we can begin to recognize the deep influence of our upbringing, especially parenting. The voices of those around us—whether positive or negative—play a significant role in shaping our perceptions and, consequently, our identity. But it’s crucial to remember that identity is not solely defined by external factors; it is also rooted in a spiritual understanding. As John 15:16 beautifully states, we are chosen by the Creator and appointed to live with purpose and impact, long before we begin making moves in the world. When we embrace this truth, we find a deep sense of belonging, love, and worth that is independent of our actions, possessions, or the opinions of others. This revolutionary perspective shifts our identity from a mere reflection of external influences to a powerful realization of who we are at our core.
