As I Live and Grieve

“Have Faith In Your Faith”

I recently had the privilege of appearing on the As I Live and Grieve podcast, where I shared my personal journey through infertility and how it challenged and ultimately deepened my faith.

In this heartfelt discussion with host Kathy Gleason, we explored the complex relationship between faith and loss. For anyone who has questioned their spiritual foundations after experiencing grief, I offered reassurance that anger, doubt, and questioning are natural parts of the grieving process and don't indicate spiritual failure.

Our conversation expanded beyond loss related to death, exploring how grief manifests in various life transitions—from divorce to job loss to retirement. I shared practical guidance for helping children develop emotional language through everyday losses, demonstrating how these experiences can build resilience from an early age.

Whether you're questioning your faith after loss, supporting someone through grief, or simply seeking to understand the complex interplay between spirituality and suffering, this conversation offers gentle wisdom without easy answers.
