Mom to Mom: Finding Joy in the Surrender of Infertility and Grief : Bonnie’s Story Pt. 1

Today’s episode is SO near and dear to my heart. I am sharing a really tender and honest “Mom to Mom” conversation with my childhood friend Bonnie. 🤍

In this first part of our conversation, Bonnie shares her unexpected journey into motherhood, walking through infertility, grief, unanswered questions, and ultimately learning what it looked like to surrender every part of herself to the Lord.

We talk about the emotional and spiritual weight of infertility, the practices that helped ground her during seasons of grief, and how God met her there. Bonnie shares so beautifully about releasing control, staying close to Jesus when life doesn’t go the way you planned, and learning to be radically honest with Him.

If you’re in a season of waiting, disappointment, grief, or simply feeling stretched thin in motherhood, I pray this conversation feels like sitting across from a friend who gently points you back to Jesus.

In this episode, we talk about:

* Bonnie’s journey through infertility

* The emotional realities of waiting for motherhood

* Grieving expectations and surrendering control

* Practical rhythms that grounded her spiritually

* Staying close to Jesus in hard seasons

* Finding peace in surrender

* Trusting God with the stories He is writing for us
