About this episode
This week, I open up about the moments in life that nearly broke me—and the unexpected ways God and community showed up to remind me I wasn’t alone. From running (or my version of it!) with a heart full of gratitude, to remembering the days when I had no power, no water, and no money, I share the sobering truth that resilience is often born in the hardest places.You’ll hear a story I’ve never shared publicly, about a season of pain and seizures so severe that I nearly gave up until a letter showed up at just the right time. I talk about the angels God sent to help me, the kindness of friends and strangers who kept my family afloat, and why moving our bodies and moving toward hope go hand in hand.If you are in a dark place right now, please know this: there is hope for you. And if you’re standing in the light, be that hope for someone else.
