Diedra McGeever on Finding Her Voice

Diedra McGeever talks about how she literally found her voice after 6-years without it. Diagnosed with an incurable disease, Diedra found hope and healing through her faith and the support of an old family friend. Hear about her journey of healing and her encouragement on how to use your voice.

Meet our Guest Diedra:

Diedra McGeever is originally from Sleepy Hollow, Illinois with all its Headless Horseman imagery. She now lives on the west coast of Florida with her husband and her kids Riley and Logan. Her background in fashion has served her well as she and her husband have now renovated I think two houses together. But her life took a twist bringing her to where she is today, and we're going to talk about that.
