Sis, this episode is a transparent moment. I’m sharing why I’m taking a God-led break from the podcast this December; not out of exhaustion, but out of obedience. In a world that glorifies constant hustle, I’m choosing to honor God’s voice over society’s expectations. If you’ve been feeling stretched, overwhelmed, or sensing God calling you to slow down, this episode will speak straight to your heart.

✨ This Episode Is For You If…

• You’ve been feeling stretched thin
• You know God is whispering “rest,” but you’ve been ignoring it
• You struggle with slowing down because you don’t want to disappoint anyone
• You’re craving clarity, peace, and spiritual alignment
• You want to learn how to honor your season without guilt

🌿 Stay Connected All December

Even though the podcast is resting, sis, I’m not disappearing. I’ll still be going live, sharing daily nuggets, and pouring into you on: @KelleyJBell

Grief changes everything. The loss, the silence, the questions that keep you up at night, it can feel like you’re carrying a weight no one else sees. But here’s the truth: even in the darkest moments, God meets us there.

In this episode of the Pursue HER Podcast, Kelley sits down with Serena, a faith-based grief counselor, to unpack what it really means to walk through loss with God by your side. Together, they explore how grief shows up in everyday life, the guilt many women feel in their healing journey, and why it’s okay to hold both sorrow and hope at the same time.

You’ll learn:

• The different types of grief we often overlook (it’s not just death).

• How to recognize when you’re avoiding pain instead of processing it.

• Why your faith isn’t “weak” if you’re still hurting.

• Practical, faith-rooted tools to help you heal in God’s presence.

• A reminder that grief is not a detour, it’s part of your story, and you don’t have to walk it alone.

Whether you’re in the middle of heartbreak or supporting someone who is, this conversation will remind you that God is still near, still faithful, and still working in your healing.

✨ You are not broken, you are being held.
