How to Turn Pain into Purpose
In this episode, we dive deep into how to find healing, faith, and legacy on the other side of pain. Debbie shares practical wisdom and biblical truth about walking through trials, leading with strength, and trusting God’s plan when life doesn’t make sense.
✦ Lay Down Your “Why”
Debbie shares how clinging to the question “why” kept her stuck in grief—and how surrendering that question to God opened the door for healing and new purpose. Once she stopped demanding answers and asked instead, “How do I survive?” and later “How do I thrive?”, everything began to change.
✦ Find the Next Best Step
When you can’t see the whole path, just take one small step forward. Debbie encourages us to focus on movement over perfection—whether that’s getting out of bed, brushing your teeth, or simply choosing to believe tomorrow will be better.✦ Trust Faster
After years of walking through trials, Debbie says her faith muscle has strengthened. She’s learned that while life doesn’t necessarily get easier, her ability to trust God gets faster—and that’s what helps her navigate new challenges with peace.✦ Lead Well in the Fire
Debbie talks about what it looks like to lead when life feels chaotic and the world is watching. True leadership is built in the hard seasons. The way we walk through challenges can preach louder than any words.✦ Suffer Like Jesus, Not Like the Israelites
We unpack what it means to go through a “wilderness season” with faith—choosing to respond like Jesus, who trusted and worshiped through the test, instead of like the Israelites, who complained and delayed their breakthrough.✦ Praise Through the Storm
When everything feels dark, praise becomes your weapon. Debbie reminds us of Paul and Silas in prison—how their worship literally broke their chains. Worship shifts your perspective and strengthens your faith.✦ Be Intentional About Your Legacy
Your legacy won’t just happen by accident. Debbie shares how everything changed when she decided to live intentionally—to build something that would outlive her and impact generations. You can do the same by being strategic with how you live, love, and lead.
How to Walk Through the Fog with Faith: Practical Takeaways

- ✦ When you’re in the fog, keep trusting that God is still writing a good story.
- Praise through the storm—worship shifts your perspective and brings peace.
