Hi, I’m Teresa Davis, a grieving mom.
My world lost its color the day my son died and I lived with so much anger toward God that, though He could have saved my son, He didn’t. I was exhausted and lost in the chaos of my grief. I clung tightly to the anchor in the darkness, expressing my grief to God the only way I knew how until one day I had to make a choice: stay in the bitter, angry lane or take a step toward building back my life.
The road was scary and unfamiliar, but I learned which tools I needed to walk this road of grief. In this podcast I’m sharing them all with you so you can learn to live with light in your darkness.
◾️If you're ready to experience peace in the chaos and want to learn how to experience joy alongside the pain, to manage your thoughts instead of your thoughts managing you…this podcast is for you.
◾️I’m holding my hand out to you in the darkness. Let me show you the way, one step at a time.
