Gratitude doesn’t ignore what broke you—it honors the One who rebuilt you.
In this vulnerable episode, I’m opening up about how trauma became the very soil where trust in God took root. We often think we can only thank God after we’ve healed… but what if gratitude is part of the healing?
If you’ve wrestled with why God allowed certain pain or wondered how to find peace with your past, this episode is a gentle invitation to reflect without regret—and to discover purpose in the places that once brought you shame.
✨ Inside this episode:
• What it really means to “thank God in all things”
• How pain became a pathway to deeper faith
• Why reflection is more powerful than resentment
• How to move from surviving trauma to seeing purpose in it
🎧 I’ll also share an affirmation to anchor your healing and a journal prompt to help you grow in gratitude—even in the hard places.
Your trauma didn’t disqualify you—it prepared you. Let’s thank God for the healing in the hurt.
