In this quietly powerful devotional, Kim invites you to slow down, breathe, and lean into God's presence when clarity is missing. Through Psalm 121 and Proverbs 3, she blends teaching and storytelling to remind your heart that God meets us before He ever reveals the next step.

This episode includes guided stillness, a reflection question, an extended grounding moment, and a deep emotional invitation to trust God more than the need for answers.

Perfect for beginning your day, ending your night, or finding peace in the middle of uncertainty.

In today’s episode, we’re going deep into the places where faith meets real life — the parts of our stories that don’t come with neat endings, quick clarity, or easy resolutions.

I’m sharing pieces of my own journey:
• growing up in a home full of big emotions
• learning to care for everyone but myself
• the eight-year struggle of infertility
• the heartbreak of a failed match
• the stunning miracle woven into our adoption story
• the identity God revealed to me — Healer & Hope Giver
• and what it really looks like to walk with God when life refuses to make sense

If you’ve ever been in a season where you’re asking God for answers and all you hear is silence… this episode is for you.
Because sometimes God doesn’t give us explanations —
He gives us Himself.
And that changes everything.

If this encourages you, please share it with a friend. You never know who might need hope today. 💛

Have you ever had life come to a screeching halt… the kind that feels like God slammed on the brakes and threw His arm across your chest like a mama in an old-school station wagon?
Yeah. Same. 🙋🏻‍♀️

In this first episode of The Healer & Hope Giver Podcast, I’m sharing the messy, honest, unfiltered story of how a “simple sandwich” spiraled into emergency surgery, a long recovery, and one of the holiest seasons of my life — including walking with my Dad through his final days.

This is a story about slowing down… but not the peaceful, spa-day kind.
The forced kind.
The painful kind.
The God-is-protecting-you-even-when-you-don’t-see-it kind.

Inside this episode, you’ll hear:
✨ How ignoring symptoms led to a major medical crisis
✨ The sacred moments God allowed me to experience with my Dad
✨ How my church family became an anchor during chaos
✨ The moment my pastor lovingly called me out (with an eye roll from me, of course)
✨ Why slowing down wasn’t punishment — it was protection
✨ How God used stillness to speak purpose over my life

If you’re tired, overwhelmed, grieving, healing, or simply trying to keep up with life… this episode is a warm blanket and a deep breath.
You’re not falling behind.
You’re being held.
