  • Summary

  • Does the thought of having to live in a world without your child cripple you? Do you lay awake at night with the ”what if’s” and the ”why’s” constantly playing in your mind, wondering if you’ll ever feel peace again? Does everything seem hard, even the little things? Do you just want someone to understand how you feel? I see you friend. In this podcast you will find the hope you’re looking for, the healing you’re longing for, and the key to living again after losing your child, all through the only way it’s possible - Jesus. Hi, I’m Courtney. Wife and mama to 6 kiddos, 1 in heaven waiting for us - and that’s why I’m here. I lost my precious 4 year old son, Sam, in 2017 and the pain and grief that instantly took over was crippling. Everything I went through after that horrific night threatened to consume me. But here I am. Years have passed. And the ONLY.WAY. I made it through was Jesus. His strength and his love carried me through a time that I could NOT have carried myself. His goodness and faithfulness were my life preservers that kept me from drowning. The hope and healing I was searching for was found in him. And it’s my joy to share with you everything this journey has taught me so far. Get ready for encouragement for your faith, tactical tips in dealing with your grief, finding hope and healing for your shattered heart, and learning how to live again. If you are screaming YES to not having to walk this road alone and letting Jesus carry you through, then I’m ready to lace up my shoes and begin walking this road with you.

  • 42 | 4 Ways to Overcome Fear After Losing Your Child
    Jul 3 2024

    Fear is one of the emotions I have really struggled with after losing Sam. If you struggle with fear as well, you know how crippling it can be.

    But God has not left us to deal with this emotion on our own! He’s equipped us with things we can do, weapons we can use, against our fears.

    In this episode, I go into what causes our fear (and no, it’s not the situation that causes the fear), how we can overcome that fear, and some truth we can speak into our fear.

  • 41 | The Typical Advice That Doesn’t Work for Grieving Moms (And What Works Instead)
    Jun 27 2024

    Throughout my own grief journey, I’ve received advice that just didn’t fit after losing Sam. This type of grief that we’re having to walk through, the grief of losing a child, is just not right. It shouldn’t be this way.

    And so the “typical” advice that we might receive just doesn’t apply to us as grieving moms.

    In this episode I bring you 4 pieces of advice that you might receive that doesn’t work in our situations. And then I give you what DOES work instead.
