Author, Kate Angelo joins us to share her powerful story of rising from childhood trauma and foster care to becoming a writer and eventually creating a voice of hope and healing in relationships. We talk about the power of storytelling that helped rewrite her own story.
Kate’s story is raw, redemptive, and deeply hopeful—and her wisdom around relationships, marriage, and healing is something every listener will walk away changed by.
Kate shares:
Her story of parental kidnapping, abuse, and abandonment
Finding an unexpected escape (and later, calling) through story
How a blind writing audition launched her debut novel
The tender, surprising ways God has healed her story
Why relationship skills are learned, not inherited
The simple communication tools she teaches that can transform marriages
How appreciation, respect, and emotional safety reshape homes and families
Whether you’re navigating your own hard story, longing for healthier relationships, or simply curious about the creative journey behind her books, this episode will meet you right where you are.
