Embracing Scars: Dr. Brian Anderson's Journey on The Recovery Hour
“During the healing process, a scar is formed. But as you reenter the unblemished reality of people's perceptions and ongoing deceptions, oftentimes there's a trace of wounds bleeding on the inside stairs from onlookers will wonder how you are still standing or where does your strength lie. It's in the freedom you feel knowing that you are beautifully scarred.”

In this episode of The Recovery Hour, hosts Bill Carruthers and Tanisha Character sit down with Dr. Brian Anderson, the inspiring founder of Beautiful Scars, Inc.
