This is the most vulnerable conversation I’ve ever shared on the podcast. My guest, Liz Hartke, opens up about the day she gave birth to her stillborn son and nearly lost her own life. What unfolded was a series of medical oversights, a last-minute surgery, and a divine moment of surrender that changed everything. Liz shares the harrowing details of hemorrhaging alone in an ER, the nurse who saved her life by speaking up, and the spiritual clarity she gained when she thought she wouldn’t make it home to her children.This episode is about more than trauma. It’s about faith in the fire, how God meets us in our darkest hour, and what it truly means to surrender your will. Liz’s story is a testimony to trusting the divine even when the outcome is unknown, and it will shake you, soften you, and maybe even help you find clarity in your own calling.If you’re a mother, a leader, or someone wrestling with purpose or grief, this episode is for you.Key Moments:3:02 Pregnancy joy turns to heartbreak9:03 A desperate plea for surgery13:59 A miracle in the OR17:39 A vow to live differently24:00 Tyler shares his own moment of hopelessness29:00 The intuition of a mother37:00 Why some survive and others don’t41:00 Can you change without suffering?45:00 The eulogy exercise that changed lives54:00 Learning to hear God’s voice1:00:11 Motherhood, guilt, and calling1:10:00 Defining your life planGuest Info:IG: https://www.instagram.com/elizhartke/Website: https://luminaryleadershipco.com/-Where to find Tyler Hall: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tylerchall/ Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/the-tyler-hall-archives-7018241874482122753/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/sirTHALL Work with Tyler: https://www.tylerchristianhall.com/
