My guest today is a special friend who is sharing her story for the first time publicly. If life has ever thrown you very unexpected and painful curve ball that changed the trajectory of your future in ways you could have never imagined, this episode is for you. Harleigh Portante is a beautiful friend who is also one of our models at Clover + Bee. She is a former Miss Teen Alabama and Miss Alabama USA. Growing up, Harleigh's life seemed like a fairytale but she would soon find out that it was anything but that. She takes us back to the day everything changed and her life would never look the same again. But she also shares how she can look back and see the Lord literally right next to her every step of the way. If you are in a season of deep grief or unexpected, life changing hardship, you will find understanding and compassion in Harleigh's authentic words today and you will find encouragement to keep going as she shares how the Lord never left her side.
