    Sometimes the hardest part isn’t leaving.
    It’s realizing something is wrong in the first place.
    You just feel… off. Confused. Second-guessing yourself. Walking on eggshells and calling it “being patient.”
    In this episode, I sit down with Becky Bytheway Wengreen, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, who shares her personal story of living through emotional abuse and what it actually looks like when it’s not obvious.

    240. Healing Through Forgiveness with the Sister Connection

    13/04/2026 | 25 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    Some pain doesn’t feel forgivable.
    Not because you don’t want peace… but because it feels unfair to let it go.
    In this Sister Connection episode, two women share what it actually looks like to wrestle with forgiveness when the hurt runs deep.
    One is navigating forgiveness after years of abuse from her mother.
    The other is grieving the loss of her 17-year-old daughter from a preventable accident.
    This isn’t surface-level “just forgive and move on.”
    This is about what happens when anger, grief, faith, and healing all collide.
    One takeaway:
    Forgiveness isn’t about excusing what happened. It’s about choosing what you carry forward… and what you finally set down.

    239. Forgiveness Without Excusing the Hurt

    06/04/2026 | 14 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    Forgiveness gets talked about a lot.
    But for many women, it feels like pressure. Like you’re supposed to “move on” from something that still hurts… or make peace with something that never felt okay in the first place.
    In this episode, we’re clearing that up.
    You’ll learn what forgiveness actually is… what it is not… and how to begin releasing the weight of resentment without minimizing your pain or removing wise boundaries.
    Because healing doesn’t come from pretending it didn’t hurt.
    It comes from finally giving your heart permission to stop carrying it alone.
    There’s also a free worksheet linked for you to process this at your own pace.
    If this topic has ever felt confusing, heavy, or impossible… come take a listen!

    238. After the Kids Grow Up: Reclaiming YOU With Dr. Christy Kane

    23/03/2026 | 29 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    There’s a moment many women don’t see coming.
    The house gets quieter.
    The kids grow up.
    Roles begin to shift.
    And suddenly you find yourself wondering:
    Who am I now?
    For years you’ve poured your heart into motherhood, marriage, family, and service. And while those things matter deeply, they can quietly become the only place your identity lives.
    So when life transitions happen, it can feel disorienting. Lonely. Even a little scary.
    In this episode, psychologist Dr. Christy Kane and I talk about what it looks like to rediscover yourself during seasons of change.
    We talk about the emotions many women experience but rarely say out loud. The quiet grief. The anxiety. The sense of losing yourself.
    But we also talk about something hopeful.
    Rebuilding identity.
    Protecting yourself.
    And learning how to create purpose again without abandoning the faith and values that matter most.
    If you’re in a season of change or can feel one coming, this conversation might be exactly what your heart needs.

    237. Faith in the Infertility Journey with the Sister Connection

    16/03/2026 | 39 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    Some grief doesn’t have a clear place to go.
    Infertility can quietly unravel so many things at once. Your plans. Your faith. Your sense of identity. Even the way you see God.
    In this deeply honest conversation, I sit down with the women behind this Sister Connection episode to talk about the layered reality of infertility. The kind that includes miscarriages, stillbirth, unanswered prayers, and long seasons of wondering where God is in all of it.
    If you’ve ever wrestled with God, felt forgotten, or wondered if your story still has purpose… this episode is for you.
    Your worth was never dependent on becoming a mother.
    And your story isn’t over.
