In this debut episode of No Grit No Pearl, I explore the theme of delays and setbacks and the unexpected ways they shape our journey. Life often throws curveballs when we’re on the edge of something meaningful—whether it’s a family crisis, health issue, or an unplanned pause. I share personal (really personal) stories of recent challenges, including my hub, Capt. Ron’s health struggles, and reflect on the hope that anchors us through life's storms.

Drawing on verses like Hebrews 6:19, *“We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure,”* I talk about how faith becomes our grit, holding us steady through trials. From the joy found at the Dragonfly Women’s Ministries Retreat to moments of reflection on God’s timing, this episode is a reminder that there is purpose in the pause and hope in the waiting.

Join me as I explore what it means to hold fast to hope, lean into God’s perfect timing, and discover the beauty that life’s grit can create.
