What happens to faith when the unimaginable happens? In this powerful and heartfelt episode, we sit down with Minister Elder Empress, who opens up about her faith journey after the devastating loss of her son. Together, we explore the sacred and often silent struggles of motherhood—mom guilt, generational trauma, identity, and the unbearable weight of grief. She shares how leaning into faith and cultivating a healthy belief system became her lifeline—a source of purpose, resilience, and a way to reframe even the darkest moments. This conversation is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the healing that can come from surrender, belief, and community.
