We open Hugh’s Big Book, the one my late husband studied every morning, and reflect on what it means to live one day at a time with God at the center.Sheldon shares his journey from relapse to renewal, the dangers of gas-station drugs, and how gratitude and grace pulled him through when nothing else worked.

  • Amazing Grace In the Darkest Hour With Sheldon Jernigan

    This week’s episode is one of the most personal and powerful ones I’ve ever shared. I sit down with my son, Sheldon, for a raw and honest conversation about addiction, resilience, and redemption. Together, we open up about years of pain, prayer, and perseverance, and how God’s grace met us both in the middle of our mess.Sheldon shares how his addiction began at a young age, what recovery has truly taught him, and why he believes his purpose now is to help others find freedom. I talk about the journey from a mother’s perspective, learning when to let go, how to love without enabling, and how faith sustained me when hope felt lost.This is for every parent, every family, and every person who needs to know that no matter how dark it gets, there is always a way back to the light.Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussion of drug addiction, incarceration, and loss, which may be difficult for some listeners.

    Episode Highlights:
    [1:45] Growing up without a father and the search for acceptance
    [5:00] The early signs of addiction and the spiral that followed
    [9:00] A mother’s breaking point and the power of surrender

  • Make One Stranger Smile Today and Watch Your Day Change
    2025/10/20
    This week, I sit down with one of the kindest souls I know, someone who believes the smallest act of kindness can ripple further than we imagine. His name is Garrett Aune, and we work and volunteer together. His philosophy is simple: one smile can change everything. We talk about empathy as a muscle, the unexpected ways joy returns when you give it away, and how one day of intentional kindness led to a movement of connection and purpose. He opens up about loss, resilience, and serving others even when your own heart feels heavy. Together, we explore what happens when you trade judgment for generosity, how to stay grounded when the world feels chaotic, and why the best way to change your day is to brighten someone else’s.

    Episode Highlights:
    [1:45] The story that started it all—helping one stranger in need
    [5:20] How kindness builds confidence and community
    [9:10] Turning pain into purpose through volunteering
    [13:45] The science of smiling—and how it rewires your brain
    [18:30] Everyday opportunities to serve where you are
    [24:00] Why gratitude grows when you give it away
    [31:15] How helping others helps you heal
    [38:00] The challenge: make one stranger smile today
