In this episode we’re dismantling the narrative of pity around widowhood and revealing the power, resilience, and divine purpose that God births through pain. Being a widow doesn’t mean being weak—it means you’ve walked through fire and still have the faith to rise. This episode challenges cultural perceptions, dives into the spiritual and emotional strength of the widow’s journey, and reminds every woman that loss does not disqualify you from destiny…it often launches you into it. Listen into the conversation between 2 widow’s; their story of pain to purpose; and hear the song that lead to moments of healing of the heart. 

In this episode, you’ll learn:
* Why you should stop apologizing for your power after loss
* How grief can become the greatest gateway to grace
* The difference between pity and purpose
* How God uses pain as the platform for new beginnings
* Biblical and practical ways to embrace strength after sorrow
* How the church has failed the widow

If you’ve ever been underestimated, overlooked, or pitied—this episode is your reminder that your pain has purpose and your story still carries power.
