This episode is a follow up to one of the most impactful conversations we’ve had on The Beauty in Burnt Toast.
Julie is back, and while her story began with deep loss and a cancer diagnosis during pregnancy, today we’re talking about where she is now. Since we last sat down, she has welcomed a baby boy and faced cancer again, and through it all, her faith has not disappeared. It has been refined.
This conversation isn’t about easy answers or perfectly wrapped endings. It’s about what it looks like to keep walking with God when the miracle doesn’t come the way you prayed for.
We talk about living in the tension of joy and grief, how her relationship with God has changed, and what faith actually looks like in everyday life after everything she’s been through.
Julie’s story reflects the heart of Psalm 77, remembering who God is even in seasons where you don’t understand what He’s doing.
We also talk about Bailey’s Blankies, a beautiful way Julie is honoring her story by collecting donations to provide blankets for moms walking through loss or NICU stays in the hospital. It’s a simple act of comfort that carries so much meaning.
If you’re in a place where your faith feels stretched, quiet, or even questioned, this episode will meet you there.
In this episode:
- A follow up on Julie’s journey since her first episode
