Listen Later

Grief isn’t just about death.

In this powerful episode of The Overcomers Podcast, Kristen sits down with Danielle Carragher—author of The Backpack of Grief—to talk about the many unexpected forms grief can take. From empty nesting and estranged relationships, to losing control, aging, and unfulfilled dreams, Danielle shares how God met her in the middle of her pain and gave her a vision—literally—on a plane to write this healing resource.

Together, Kristen and Danielle unpack:

  • Why grief feels heavier some days than others

  • The grief of parenting transitions and lost dreams

  • What the Bible teaches us about sorrow, healing, and God’s timing

  • The connection between perimenopause, mental health, and hormonal support

  • Why it’s okay to carry grief—but not alone

Whether you're grieving a person, a season, or a dream—this one will meet you where you are.
