Have you ever grieved something so deeply that you didn’t know how to move forward? In this episode, I sit down with my friend Danielle, who shares how the sudden loss of her mom opened a door to something entirely new. What started as a pursuit of health and a faith-fueled fitness journey turned into writing a 30-day devotional on grief during one plane ride.
Together, we talk about how grief shows up in ways we don’t always name. It can be the loss of a loved one, a move to a new place, a shift in motherhood, or changes in our identity. Danielle brings such a gentle wisdom and practical faith perspective to the conversation, reminding us that while grief is real, it doesn’t get the final say. As Romans 8:28 reminds us, “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”
You’ll be encouraged by her honesty, inspired by her obedience, and reminded that even in sorrow, God is still writing beautiful stories. Whether you’re grieving a person, a place, or a season, this conversation will help you feel seen and remind you that your pain has purpose. Psalm 34:18 says, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
If you are suffering with silent grief or feeling stuck in sadness, this episode will remind you that you are not alone and that healing is possible.
