#31 A Complex Journey to Motherhood: Jacqui Page on Faith, Love, and the Strength to Keep Going

Jacqui Page’s story is one of fierce love, deep faith, and resilience forged in the fire of the unexpected.After years of waiting and praying, Jacqui and her husband welcomed a daughter into their lives—though not in the way they had imagined. From the very beginning, her daughter’s needs were significant, and Jacqui found herself in the thick of hospital corridors, tough conversations, and decisions no parent ever wants to face. She was fighting for time, connection, and the chance to simply be her daughter’s mum.But Jacqui also knows that not every story ends the same way. Many parents carry profound disappointment or walk through unimaginable loss. There are often no clear answers, and certainly no one to blame. Still, she holds fast to this: that even when we don’t understand, God’s goodness is not undone.This episode is for anyone navigating a path they didn’t choose—who still longs to find hope, meaning, and a way through.
