Ever felt like you're stuck in the middle of suffering, wondering if God sees you? Maybe you're wrestling with chronic illness, struggling with food freedom, or just questioning why things feel so hard. If you've ever thought, "God, where are You in all of this?"—this episode is for you.
In today’s conversation, Brittany sits down with Ivory Grainger, life coach and host of the Rise Up & Radiate podcast, to talk about suffering, faith, and how to hold onto hope when life feels unbearably hard. Ivory shares her powerful testimony of navigating chronic illness, hitting rock bottom, and learning to trust God in the darkest moments. If you're feeling stuck, this episode will remind you that your suffering is not wasted—God is working, even when you can’t see it.
A few things you can expect to hear in this episode include…
🔥 A game-changing perspective shift that will transform how you see suffering
🌿 Why clinging to why is keeping you stuck (and what to ask instead)
💡 The surprising way past trauma might be shaping your beliefs about God
🙏 A simple yet powerful way to reframe suffering through a faith-filled lens
✨ How to find light in the darkness (even when you feel abandoned)
A special note from Ivory: “This is still a process and a journey for me. Sometimes, I kill it and I navigate the suffering well, and sometimes, it’s a legit struggle. I get it. Keep pursuing God through it all.”
