What does it look like to trust God when your heart is shattered?

In this tender and powerful conversation, I sit down with my dear friend Mary Helen Smock—a wife, mother, and woman of unwavering faith—to hear her story of grief and loss, and more importantly, God’s sustaining grace. After losing her husband, Mary could have chosen bitterness, isolation, or silence. But instead, she chose to lean in. Into her faith. Into community. And into the presence of God.

This episode is for every woman who’s ever wondered if her faith could survive the storm. If you’re navigating grief, wrestling with unanswered prayers, or simply looking for proof that hope is still possible—Mary’s story will encourage your heart and gently remind you that God is near to the brokenhearted.
