Hey friends—so I’m recording this one while I’m actually on vacation (because sometimes the Lord gives you a word no matter where you are!), and I wanted to share something that’s been on my heart.

I’ve been going through a Bible study called "Strength in the Struggle," and one chapter in particular really hit home—it’s all about how we biblically process suffering. Yep, real suffering. The kind that knocks the wind out of you or sneaks up years later.

In this episode, I’m diving into Lamentations chapter 3—of all books!—and talking through how even in the darkest moments, there is still hope. God never promised we wouldn’t suffer, but He did promise He’d be with us in it. And I believe with my whole heart that no matter what’s happened to you, or what you’re walking through right now, you can still live a life full of joy, fun, and purpose—with the struggle, not just after it.

We all suffer in some way, but the way we deal with it? That shapes everything.

So come hang with me for a few minutes. This might be exactly what you didn’t know you needed today.

Would you please mind giving this podcast a review? I would love 5⭐️ - this allows more people to see it, more people to hear the Word and maybe, it can be of supper to more people.

Come check out the zero drama, zero judgment women's group who want to dive deeper into their faith and have some girly fun along the way. We'd love you to drop by the Bible Babes!

In this powerful episode, I’m joined by breast cancer survivor Jen Delvaux as we dive into the unexpected grief that often comes with a cancer diagnosis—grief we didn’t see coming and never signed up for.

Whether you’ve faced cancer personally or not, this conversation is for you. We talk about the quiet, hidden losses—the dreams that shifted, the changes you never saw coming, and the moments that altered your life without your permission. Because truthfully? Grief doesn’t just follow a funeral. It can show up anywhere—after a diagnosis, a detour, or even the simple loss of what you thought life would look like.

This episode is part of a heartfelt new series exploring the kinds of grief that often go unnamed—but still shape us. My hope is that these conversations remind you that you’re not alone and give you space (and permission) to grieve what you can’t just “get over.”

Join Jen and I for this honest, tender, and deeply human conversation. It might be exactly what your heart needs today.

Please let us know what you thought!! More come in this series.

Welcome to the start of a series where we will be diving into on grief; how to grieve well and looking into things that might be holding us back that we might need to grieve.

We will be having a series on this topic beginning with how to identify if we need to grieve something in addition to other resources that we will be sharing.

Please join me for a prayer and a story that might hit home with you as you search your mind and heart for things that maybe haven't been fully processed. I want this to be a source of hope and encouragement for you as I have grieved alone for so many years… I don't want you to have to do the same..

Join me for a light-hearted walk and talk where I share some recent fun from Camp Be More, an unexpected moment with actual fireworks, and how Michael J. Fox inspired a deeper reflection on gratitude, perspective, and perseverance.

On Hope In Struggle, my heart is to help you see your struggles differently—to shift your perspective so you can find the silver lining, even in the hardest seasons. Life’s challenges aren’t meant to crush us—they're part of God’s greater plan to grow, strengthen, and prepare us. With the right mindset, it’s possible to find joy, purpose, and hope in every season.

So let’s laugh a little, reflect a lot, and remember with Jesus that there is always hope—even in the struggle.

What is Camp Me More?

A live event just for midlife women who want to…

• Balance hormones & boost metabolism—so you can feel incredible in your body again
• Transform your mindset & confidence—because midlife should be your most powerful season
• Understand cutting-edge longevity hacks—including microdosing, peptides, and the latest anti-aging research
• Discover the real science behind fitness & fat loss in midlife
• Dealing with Grief and how we do this and still live an amazing life

This isn’t just a retreat—it’s a wake-up call for women who are DONE with trial-and-error solutions and are ready for expert-backed strategies.

Please plan to join me there, next year!

In this heartfelt episode, I speak candidly with longtime friend and cancer survivor, Jen Delvaux, half of the voice behind the podcast Not Today Cancer. Together, we explore the emotional and relational impact of life-changing events, sharing our personal stories of loss and transformation.

Jen and I delve into the challenging journey of navigating life after significant, life-altering events—Jen's cancer diagnosis and the death of my husband, Lee. We reflect on the painful and unexpected changes in friendships, family dynamics, and the emotional toll these events can take.

We have to acknowledge the complexities of human relationships and the need for grace as people cope in their own ways!

Resources: Romans 15:13, Peter 1:5-7

Mindy dive's into the complexities of friendship after experiencing a profound loss. I lost my husband in December 2019, and while I don’t believe anyone intentionally distanced themselves, I’ve found that friendships have changed in ways I never expected.

I share a snippet from The Chalene Show, where Chalene Johnson and I began discussing this very topic, only to realize that many others were feeling the same shift. My friend Jen Delvaux, who has faced her own journey after a cancer diagnosis, also shares her perspective on how friendships evolve through life’s toughest seasons.

Listen to the full episode here: https://sites.libsyn.com/57436/would-you-trade-freedom-for-10-million-1173

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• The unexpected ways friendships shift after a major loss

• Why people might step back—not out of rejection, but uncertainty

• How to navigate new dynamics in relationships while honoring your grief

• The importance of finding and embracing friends who can walk with you in your journey

• Encouragement for those struggling with changed friendships

Let’s Keep the Conversation Going:

I’d love to hear your thoughts! Have you experienced a shift in friendships after loss? Connect with me and let’s talk about it.

• Follow Chalene Johnson for more insights and discussions

• Follow Jen Delvaux to hear her story and journey

This episode is jam packed and so interesting with guest Helen Pridmore. Helen, a structural engineer turned functional health and wellness coach, is passionate about helping women reclaim their health through simple, science-backed nutrition and strength training.

In 2020, she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) after losing sight in her left eye. Instead of accepting a life of decline, Helen leaned into functional medicine, nutrition, and fitness—and not only did she regain my vision, but also rebuilt her strength, healed her body, and transformed her energy. She shares more on this and why she has chosen certain supplements and a one-of-a-kind fitness and nutrition strategy that has helped her and many others. Tell me what you think!!
