You Can Turn Pain Into Purpose | Life Lesson Quotes — Noah May | Ep 182

In this episode of Relatable Wisdom, I sit down with Noah May, a recent Auburn journalism graduate and host of the Lethal Venom podcast. Noah shares the mantra that’s shaped his journey: “Once a fighter, always a fighter.” We dive deep into what that means for someone who’s faced battles with depression and anxiety since his early teens—from bullying in middle school to navigating overwhelming mental health struggles during high school and college. Noah’s story is moving, honest, and raw. He offers insight into how perseverance, resilience, and the courage to keep speaking truth—even when it’s hard—can transform pain into purpose. This episode is a beacon for anyone who’s ever felt hopeless. If you’re wrestling with your own battles, Noah’s experience and wisdom remind you that being a fighter isn’t a one-time label—it’s an ongoing identity that grows stronger with every challenge. I hope Noah’s story encourages you to keep fighting, learning, and adapting on your own journey.
