Welcome to Grief2Grace, the podcast where we explore powerful stories of transformation and resilience. Hosted by Ruth Hephzibah and powered by Echoes of Life, each episode delves into the journeys of individuals who have navigated the depths of grief and emerged into the light of grace.
In this episode, we are honored to have Nikita Ford, a survivor of domestic violence and sexual abuse, who has turned her pain into purpose. Born and raised in Beloit, Wisconsin, Nikita became a mother at 16 and, by the age of 25, was raising five children. She endured the hardships of a troubled marriage, only to find love again and face the tragic loss of her second husband, Maurice Ford, in December 2021.
Despite these immense challenges, Nikita was inspired by her faith to create Rubies with a Purpose, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting women in domestic violence situations. Through her testimony, she aims to help other women understand their worth and God’s purpose for their lives.
In this episode, you will hear:
• Nikita’s story of survival and strength
• Insights into her journey of healing and faith
• The mission and vision of Rubies with a Purpose
• Key takeaways that can inspire and empower you
Stay tuned until the end for a special bonus! Active listeners will receive a free gift, and those who participate in our end-of-episode question will get a free workbook. Plus, if you purchase Ruth’s book, “A Pen That Rewrites Grief,” you’ll receive a free 1-hour coaching session.
