S1:EP12 Part 2: “And God” From Rock Bottom to Redemption, Kellie Griggs Inspiring Journey

Welcome back to Moms With A Call, a podcast for the spiritually curious, the tender-hearted, and the ones still figuring it out. In this second part of her story, Kellie Griggs invites us into a beautiful and hard-earned love story; one marked by deep faith, unexpected challenges, and the kind of perseverance that can only come from God. Kellie shares how she met her husband Sterling at church, and how their relationship grew through seasons of doubt, healing, and pursuit. From overcoming insecurities to navigating Sterling’s life-threatening health battle, this episode is a powerful testament to love refined through fire, and the strength found in community, prayer, and God’s provision. We also explore Kellie’s incredible journey in the field of nursing, including a pivotal (and humbling) moment meeting President George W. Bush, and the ways she’s continued to use her voice to advocate for others. We talk about: Meeting Sterling and learning to receive love Walking through health crises as a young couple The power of therapy, communication, and community Becoming a nurse and a voice for the unheard Surrendering control and trusting God in the unknown If you’ve ever questioned your capacity to hold it all together, this episode is your reminder that you were never meant to.
