Kahrin

Season 2021 Episode 10 | 47m 56s

In 2019, Kahrin Spear was the captain and starting point guard for John Carroll University's championship basketball team. Following graduation, however, Spear was off her game, struggling with her sexuality, her faith and her future. Throw in a global pandemic and you have the makings of full-blown depression. Instead, she immersed herself in music.
