In this heartfelt conversation, Kristan sat down with licensed minister Laura Sharp-Waites to talk about what happens when life feels heavy, faith feels distant, and you’re carrying more than you know how to hold.
Laura shares how seasons of physical, emotional, and spiritual exhaustion shaped her journey and deepened her understanding of faith. Rather than chasing perfection or quick fixes, she talks about the power of creating space for honesty, reflection, and healing. We explore how God’s presence can show up in everyday moments, how to move through hard seasons with grace, and why simply feeling seen can be the first real step toward renewal.
This one’s an invitation to slow down, embrace what’s real, and remember you don’t have to walk through it alone.
