If Only I Were Wiser

What do you do when the prayers go unanswered, and the waiting feels endless? In this vulnerable solo episode, I'm sharing our journey of trying for another baby—and how our faith was tested in ways we never expected. From unexpected infertility to the quiet ache of waiting, I open up about what it looked like to trust God when nothing made sense, how community held us up when we couldn't, and why Christian clichés sometimes fall painfully short. If you're in your own season of waiting—whether for a child, healing, or hope—my prayer is that this conversation meets you gently right where you are.Episode Show Notes on Living Wisely Well WebsiteA Quote to Carry With You:“Waiting doesn't suddenly become easier just because a prayer gets answered.

Lean in as we explore the energetics of healing, why this isn't as “woo woo” as you might think, and some simple, doable steps to start incorporating homeopathy into your own medicine cabinet.Episode Show Notes on Living Wisely Well WebsiteShop homeopathy + fertility packages at Mother Bloom CollectiveConnect with Marisa on Instagram
