In this solo episode of The GRITT of the Matter, Denice shares a real moment from her own week — navigating pain, lack of sleep, and the frustration of feeling behind.

Rather than pushing through or pretending everything is fine, she reflects on the importance of giving yourself grace when life slows you down.

This episode explores:

• why resilience sometimes means slowing down• listening to your body during difficult seasons• mindset shifts when things don’t go as planned• why showing up differently is still progress

A reminder that healing and strength don’t always move in a straight line.
