In this week's episode of The BraveHearted Woman Podcast, I am joined by Tracie Miles, director of Compelling Writers Training at P31 Ministries, bestselling author, and founder of the Living Unbroken Divorce Recovery Program.
Tracie shares her personal journey of navigating through a life quake — a term she uses to describe the sudden, ground-shaking changes in life that leave everything in disarray.
Eight years ago, Tracie Miles faced the devastation of her marriage ending, which felt like her life had derailed. She shares her emotional turmoil, anger, and profound sadness, especially for her children, comparing it to mourning the loss of a living person. Despite the overwhelming grief, Tracie emphasizes moving forward with courage and faith.
Dawn and Tracie discuss accepting what cannot be changed, reframing negative thoughts, and the difference between courage and confidence. Tracie’s book, "God's Got You: Embracing New Beginnings with Courage and Confidence," encapsulates her message of hope and empowerment, encouraging listeners to embrace new seasons of life with faith, wisdom, and experience. Join Dawn and Tracie for an inspiring discussion on overcoming life’s challenges, finding joy amidst sorrow, and trusting in God’s plan for new beginnings!
