Quotes and statements within the interview:
"I do always joke that I kinda feel like an old lady there."
"But you really get to see just how much you value something and what's important to you when you kind of have to strip away all the distractions."
"As I kinda grew into the preteen and teen years, that really became a pretty deep thread in my life was this idea that I needed to as certain things to make people happy and to make people like me."
"I really kind of internalized this belief that to do something important in my life I would have to do something more than being just a mom.""Everyone was aware that something was going on except for me."
"It was a lot of time for me to just kind of lean into my faith and really ask myself what I really believe about God's goodness and how He's gonna show up for me in this time."
"Daddy, this hurts. This is hard."
"If we can just sort of separate from those for me, that has been when I hear His voice the most clearly.""I feel like if there's one thing my story shouts without me having to say it, it's that God is in those details, and He's such a God of details."
"Not only did she and I share a birthday of July 30th, but she was born in July of 2011 which was the same year and month that God had given me this knowledge in my heart that I had a daughter named Rose."
"We just have to kind of keep showing up and asking Him to reveal more to us.""God uses that waiting time to refine us so much."
"Hard isn't always bad."
"No matter what you're walking through, perspective and gratitude will change your heart; and the only thing that anger and resentment gives you is just another sour moment in your life."
What has your story gifted you?
- See the uniqueness if other people's stories
"It's really given me this sort of fresh set of eyes to look around me and appreciate more of the diversity and uniqueness in the way God writes our stories."
