  <description><![CDATA[<p>The Driven is a podcast hosted by Colt Charlebois. Sitting down with business owners, founders, and high-capacity leaders, he uncovers the real stories behind their success — the lows, the turning points, and the faith woven through it all. Every episode follows the same arc: where it all started, what nearly broke them, the moment things shifted, and where they are now. Raw testimony from leaders who built something meaningful while carrying real weight — in business, in life, and in faith.</p>]]></description>

In this episode, Cheyenne shares the fundraiser that cracked her open, the scripture that shifted everything from self-preservation to surrender, and the birthday provision that confirmed God was already moving ahead of her. Colt and Cheyenne go to deeply vulnerable places together — discussing abortion, shame, and the forgiveness that comes when you stop running.
