Join me on the podcast: The Beauty of Grace with author Robin Gerblick and her heartfelt story of redemption.
In this heartfelt episode, The Beauty of Grace, of Beholder Beauty, I interview Robin Gerblick, the author of Giving Up Grace: A Spiritual Rebranding of the Soul. Robin shares her deeply personal journey through abortion, healing, and eventual adoption. We discuss the challenges and consequences of abortion, finding forgiveness, and rediscovering faith. The conversation touches on the complexities of inner and outer beauty and the transformative power of God’s grace. Robin also highlights her work with women’s retreats and provides valuable resources for those seeking post-abortion healing. This episode offers hope, healing, and inspiration for anyone navigating similar struggles.

God’s grace is the beginning and the end of everything.
I love my story and my journey that it all goes full circle from abortion to adoption.
I think knowing that you’re God’s daughter is his most intimate gift that he can give to us.
My friend said was, “What is different about you? You look so different and so good. It’s just like you’re radiating. And I said, I got Jesus.

Giving a voice to the journey from broken to beloved. 🕊️ Today I am sharing a special episode of Behold-Her Beauty Podcast with author, Sarah Freymuthto discuss her book, All the Hard Things: 50 Days Through the Valley.

Sarah is the author of All the Hard Things: 50 Days Through the Valley, a devotional journey shaped by her own experiences of long COVID, anxiety, depression, and the repeated hardships that quietly reshape a life.
In our conversation, she opens up about what it means to find God’s presence not after the hard things—but in the middle of them. Through her story, we talk about what it looks like to anchor identity in Christ when everything else feels uncertain, and how God often speaks through unexpected “trail markers” of hope—like friendships, nature, music, and even the small reminders we almost overlook.
We also talk about beauty, soul care, and what it means to believe God is still good when life feels heavy.
If you’ve ever found yourself in a season where the “valley” feels long or confusing, this conversation will gently meet you there.
Because sometimes hope doesn’t arrive as a rescue from the valley—but as a companion within it.
The episode closes with a beautiful heartfelt prayer from Sarah to guide you through your week.
A Reflection For You
