In this episode of the NEXT Podcast, we continue exploring the myths surrounding grief—especially the pressure to “move on,” or “find closure,” and the belief that time alone brings healing.

I share honestly about what it means to live with loss beyond the first year, the unexpected ways pain deepens over time and how embracing that pain with God’s presence can actually grow your capacity for joy.

This episode is raw, reflective, and rooted in hope. If you’ve ever felt like your grief doesn’t fit a timeline, this conversation is for you.
