When life knocks the wind out of you — through loss, betrayal, change, or heartbreak — it can feel impossible to stand again. In this heartfelt episode, Donna Woolam shares powerful truth and faith-filled encouragement for finding your footing after life’s upheaval.

Drawing from her own story of loss and renewal, Donna invites you to rediscover who you are in Christ when everything familiar disappears. With touching biblical insight and relatable honesty, she shares the stories of Hagar, Peter, Hannah, Ruth, and others who found purpose and identity through their pain.

This episode is a gentle but powerful reminder: you are seen, you are loved, and you were made to walk on the water — even when the waves are high.

🌊 Key Takeaways

  • Why life’s unexpected upheavals often become sacred turning points
  • What it means to beseen by Godeven in desolation
  • How the story of Hagar reveals God’s compassion and provision in pain
  • Why Peter’s “water walking” moment still calls to us today
  • The truth about finding your feet again — and the woman God created you to be


💬 Memorable Quotes

“When life shakes you to the core, it isn’t the end — it’s the invitation to know God more deeply.”
“Finding your feet again doesn’t mean pretending nothing bad happened. It means choosing to stand when the waves are still moving.”
“The God who sees — still sees you.”

🙏 Faith Focus

Through scripture and story, Donna reminds listeners that the God who met Hagar in the desert is still the same today — the God Who Sees (El Roi) and The God Who Provides (Jehovah Jireh).

Even in heartbreak, God’s purpose is unfolding.
