This episode explores the powerful concept of ātreasures in the darknessāāthe hidden blessings, revelations, and strengths that often emerge from pain and loss. Rachael shares a vivid and symbolic dream she experienced before the loss of her husband Micah, where a devastating storm gave way to breathtaking jewels scattered across the groundārepresenting divine gifts born out of grief.
