From eight cross-country moves to deep wounds and restless transitions, Teresa shares the pain of goodbyes, the ache of being misunderstood, and the practical ways she’s learned to grieve and rebuild each time. Together, they refuse to downplay the cost but point back to the solid ground of God’s promises, the power of community, and the comfort of Scripture.\nIf you’ve ever wondered whether you’re alone or if the anxiety and grief are normal, this episode is for you. Come sit with two friends—honest, vulnerable, and full of grace—who’ve been there and are still in process. In every uprooting, loss, or battle, you’ll find fresh reminders that it is possible to walk forward with resilience, open hands, and hearts anchored in the hope of Jesus.\n\nResources Mentioned In The Episode:\n\nDark Clouds, Deep Mercy by Mark Vroegop","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/EiuIGCrfzj8QD0h6cORO3MbZWMmgKYuXVCNPjBE6A9U/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9jMGU3/OGQyMDBkNWExYmY5/MzE2NDc4N2RjNDBi/YTEyZS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
