Life in the trenches is hard — but it’s not without beauty.
Finding Beauty in the Trenches is a podcast for weary hearts walking through real-life struggles — especially parents raising children with special needs, caregivers, or anyone navigating seasons of suffering and unseen battles.
Hosted by yours truly, a special needs mom who knows what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and overlooked, this podcast is a reminder that God’s goodness isn’t reserved for the easy days. It shows up right here — in the messy, exhausting, ordinary moments of life.
Each episode offers honest stories, gentle encouragement, and hope-filled reminders that you are not alone. Together, we’ll look for beauty — not after the hard season ends — but right here in the middle of it.
There is beauty in your story. Let’s find it together.
