In this deeply personal episode, I share pieces of my family’s journey navigating faith differences, heartbreak, strained relationships, and the fear that things may never heal.Like many parents, my husband and I raised our children with love, faith, values, and the hope that they would embrace the beliefs that meant so much to us. Over time, many of our children chose very different paths. Some stepped away quietly. Others left dramatically. Some relationships became painful, distant, or deeply complicated.But this episode is not ultimately about loss.It is about hope.It is about learning that relationships can heal even when beliefs differ. That hearts can soften over time. That love can grow deeper when judgment fades. And that God’s love for our children never changes.Support group contact form:<a href="https://www.shireebest.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"> shireebest.com</a>Listen to episode: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/6bfkeZ2RfHq2LuvKiWPOjq?si=nyoTGNjBRYSlccmpGWbcDw" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Refined By My Daughter</a>

Your Feelings Matter Too - With Alysia Humphries

If you have searched to understand loved ones who have left their religious faith, this show is for you. As a mother of six out of seven children who have chosen a different path from the one they were raised in, I intimately understand the profound struggle this journey entails. 

On this compassionate exploration we share moments of laughter, tears, and resilience. Through insightful interviews, we unravel the personal struggles of individuals whose loved ones have ventured away from their initial beliefs, and how they emerged on the other side with newfound understanding and peace.
