For this special Mother’s Day episode of Graced for the Journey, I’m joined by my very first guest—my mom. Her story is one of unwavering strength and quiet resilience through life’s many seasons. From going to college as a mother, to enduring multiple miscarriages and the heartbreak of a stillbirth, her journey is a powerful reminder that grace truly sustains us when life shifts unexpectedly.

Her life has shaped mine in so many ways, and I’m honored to share her voice, her wisdom, and her faith-filled perspective with you.

This episode is for every woman walking through transition, holding onto hope, and trusting God to carry her through.

Some days, life feels so heavy that even thinking about “pushing through” feels impossible.

In this episode, I’m simply sharing my heart — no 5-step plans, no quick fixes. Just a raw moment of honesty about what it’s like when you feel like you can’t even do life today.

I didn’t have the right words. I didn’t have a perfect prayer. I just cried before God, trusting that He was still there, even when I felt completely worn out.

Somewhere in the middle of the heaviness, I had to remember my why — the purpose God placed inside me — and I realized how grateful I am for the people who remind me I’m not walking this journey alone.

If you’ve ever had one of those days where life feels too heavy to carry, you’re not crazy — and you’re not alone.

Thank you for being here.

Your past may explain how you got here—but it doesn’t get to define where you’re going.

In this episode of Graced for the Journey, we’re talking about the power of letting go of the past—not ignoring it, but no longer letting it control the narrative.

Maybe you’ve been hurt, betrayed, overlooked… or maybe you’ve made mistakes you thought disqualified you. But the truth is, you are not what happened to you. And you are not your worst moment.

✨ Let this be your reminder:

• You are not what happened to you
• You are not your worst moment
• You are not the opinions of others

You are chosen, capable, and called—even now.

Let this be the episode that helps you dig deep, shake off the shame, and reignite those childhood dreams. You’re not your past. You’re becoming.
