Welcome to the VERY FIRST EPISODE of From Healed to Heartbreak. 

I endured infidelity in my own marriage that ultimately led to a separation and divorce.  And every time the pain just seemed to be too much and I wanted to scream out to God “Why me”  I would stop myself.  I was old enough to know you never got the answer to that question.

Instead I would ask “what do you want me to do with this pain?”  “what is the purpose?”

And every time I would also get the same answer back…share your story to help others.  

In the beginning I had no idea what that would look like.  How I could share my story and protect my children.  I was fiercely protective of them.  

But as they grew and I healed it became apparent what God was calling me to do.  How he was calling me to show up in the world in ways I had never dreamed of  

I tried to ignore this calling he placed on my heart.  

But, God.  Rich in mercy.  Slow to anger.  Just kept dropping hints.  Some small and some not so small.  

So here I am.  Bravely sharing my own journey so that it may help you.  I’m a life coach for women helping them walk their journey and now a podcaster.  

If you’re here, first let me say I’m so sorry.  I know the pain.  I know the raw emotions.  I know your heart is tender and it feels broken.  

But I also know healing.  And finding JOY in the midst of pain.  I know how to create JOY in suffering.  And that’s why I’m here.

I want to walk with you on your healing journey.  I want to share what has worked for me  and what didn’t work.  I want to help you find JOY again.

Because it’s there.  JOY and Suffering can coexist.  

You are here, which means there has been heartbreak in your life, whether that was from infidelity or something else.  

Just know you are in the right place.  You are so very loved.  

My favorite scripture is JOY Comes in the Morning: Psalm 30:5

For his anger lasts only a moment, 

But his favor lasts a lifetime:

Weeping may stay for the night,

But reJOYcing comes in the morning.  

I often think of mourning, not morning, when I think of that scripture.  And it is so true too.  JOY does come in the mourning.  

JOY comes in the grief.  JOY comes in the heartbreak.  JOY comes in the mourning.  JOY comes in the bitterness.  JOY comes in the sorrow.  JOY comes in the anger.  JOY comes in the morning.

And your JOY is coming.  And it will be so sweet.  

I’m praying for you.  I’m walking this journey with you.  And I can’t wait to see you back here next week.
