How do you keep believing when the waiting feels endless?

In this episode of SpeakHER Sessions, host Kim Atwood sits down with Hope Andrews, a commercial real estate professional, wife, and mom, about the kind of waiting that reshapes you — the waiting that challenges your faith, tests your confidence, and tempts you to isolate.

Hope shares her journey with honesty and quiet strength: how seasons of delay impacted her sense of self, what it felt like to carry disappointment in silence, and why support mattered as much as belief. This conversation is tender, relatable, and full of perspective for anyone navigating a season where life isn’t unfolding on their timeline.

If you’re waiting on clarity, healing, a relationship, a family, or your next chapter — this episode is a reminder: you’re not alone in the pause, and you don’t have to carry it alone.
