So many of us try to outrun grief, filling our days with busyness, wearing the mask of strength, reciting the platitudes people hand us. But here’s the truth: avoiding your grief won’t heal you. It only delays the inevitable.
In this raw and compassionate episode, Laura shares her own story of trying to stay “strong” after loss, the ways avoidance backfired, and what it looked like to finally stop running. Through real-life moments, a stoplight breakdown, the absurdity of IRS widow paperwork, and the biblical story of Elijah under the broom tree, she brings both honesty and hope.
This is a candid conversation for anyone who’s been avoiding pain, numbing it, or pretending it’s not there. You’ll leave with practical tools, tender encouragement, and the reminder that God is not afraid of your collapse.
Listen in, and let’s face grief together, not as something to avoid, but as the place where healing begins.
