In this episode of Why I Believe, I sit down with Yannick Hicks, man of faith, immigrant, and lifelong learner, to talk about identity, perseverance, and what it means to trust God through every transition. Originally from Cameroon, Yannick moved to the United States as a teenager, stepping into a completely new culture, environment, and way of life. From culture shock and uncertainty\u2026 to navigating high school, education, and career\u2026 to building a life in a place that once felt unfamiliar. His journey hasn\u2019t been defined by one moment. It\u2019s been shaped by many. We talk about:   Adjusting to a new country, culture, and identity The challenges of starting over and finding your place How faith became the foundation through every season  Growing through discomfort, change, and uncertainty The importance of perspective, growth, and continuous learning  Living with purpose and asking: \u201cHow can I make the world better?\u201d  Yannick\u2019s story is a reminder that faith isn\u2019t just something you turn to in difficult moments; It\u2019s something you build your life on.
