Today’s episode is one I never imagined I’d record. I’m sitting down with someone from a very painful chapter of my life — my ex-husband. We were married for 14 years. Our story was filled with addiction, codependency, abuse, and heartbreak. But it’s also a story of healing, forgiveness, and growth.

After a decade of divorce, God has done something I never thought possible — He gave us peace. We’re not together, but we’re both doing the work. And today, we’re sharing our story not to rehash the past, but to give someone out there hope that healing is possible — even if the relationship didn’t survive.

This episode may bring up some tough things — but I hope it also brings light. Because sometimes, growth doesn’t look like reconciliation… it looks like release, restoration, and peace on the other side."

For every mother who’s ever cried out to God with the question:

Why are they choosing this?
Why do they keep running toward pain, chaos, or brokenness when I raised them with so much more?
Why are they choosing people who don’t value them—environments that feel unsafe, even toxic?

If you’ve ever asked yourself those questions, you are not alone. And I want you to hear this loud and clear:
You are not crazy.
You are not overreacting.
