On today’s episode of Her Pursuit, I’m interviewing Brittany Wilson- photographer, mother of 3 and wife to her husband, Kaleb, who was in an traumatic accident that left him with a spinal cord injury. In this episode, Brittany opens up about what it was like to get a call that would forever change both of their lives, how their relationship moved forward in the months and years that followed, and her honest feelings about God & her faith through the healing process they both had to navigate. She openly shares about feeling like God had given them both so much to handle and asking him, “Why?” which I think we can all relate to in some regard. We also discuss the reality of walking in faith after experiencing a life-altering trauma, what it looks like to deal with anger toward God, and her journey to pregnancy through PCOS. We even talk about releasing emotions that we may have held onto for years, unmet expectations, and grieving the life and plans we thought would be.
Brittany gets super vulnerable about delivering via emergency C-section after struggling to conceive and how that birth impacted the way she felt about herself as a mom and motherhood as a whole. We get into postpartum and what it’s like when anxiety comes to a head and becomes more than you can handle or try to ignore and how to cope during those difficult seasons.
She and her husband are examples of holding onto faith, trusting God for His best even when your world is absolutely turned upside down, and overcoming huge obstacles in order to thrive and live life to the fullest. This episode will encourage and inspire you. If you’ve ever felt like God has given you too much to handle or if you’ve ever grieved an outcome or season of life that you thought would look one way, but turned out to be completely different, you must listen to this interview. You will laugh and cry. So grab your headphones or plug your phone into your car and let’s dive in to this amazing conversation.
