Are there wounds or losses from your past that seem too big or too complicated to be healed? Are there difficult people in your life that continue to create drama and pain? What if healing could be possible?

Sarah Mae's passion is to encourage women to walk in healing and freedom, even when the wounds are still open.

Sarah Mae is a mom, teacher, author, podcaster, and in her own words, these four things:

1. "I can tie my hair in a knot with one hand."
2. "I have a motorcycle license."
3. "I was never the cool girl."
4. "I have two puppies – a yellow lab and an elkhound husky."

Today, Sarah and I talk about her newest book, The Complicated Heart: Loving Even When It Hurts. Sarah shares her story of learning to love and forgive her alcoholic mother, and her journey of healing and grieving the wounds from her childhood.
