What happens when the life you imagined doesn’t come to pass? In this episode of The Jigsaw, Josh and Bryan tackle the unique grief of longing for what never was—missed opportunities, unfulfilled dreams, and expectations that didn’t align with reality. How do you balance celebrating milestones, like making it to the finals or graduating with honors, while mourning that it wasn’t the story you envisioned?

The Casanegros reflect on how our community often pushes us to “keep it moving” or “trust God’s plan,” but what happens when the disappointment feels unbearable? They offer heartfelt advice on navigating the grief of unmet goals and finding healing when life’s detours change the destination.

Join the conversation as they unpack the intersection of faith, mental health, and resilience. Whether you’re grieving a relationship, career, or personal dream, this episode reminds us that healing is possible—even when the journey looks nothing like we planned. Let’s piece it together.
