Darlene Larson: Pearls Found In The Depths Of Grief

In this heartfelt episode, Lisa talks with Darlene Larson, founder of Hearts with a Purpose, Christian Life Purpose Coach, and Grief-Loss Coach. Darlene shares from her latest book, Leading You Through the Valley: A Personalized Grief-Loss Coaching Book, a deeply personal and practical guide to walking with God through seasons of sorrow.
Together, they discuss what it means to “gut it out with God” during life’s hardest seasons and how to move from pain to purpose. Darlene shares how grief can be a place of molding when we stay close to God and invite Him into our hurt, reminding us that “We get stuck if we have not processed it and invited Jesus in to heal us.”
💬 Quotes to remember:
• “Timing is up to God because we know He is always at work.”
• “Do I want full healing? Because it’s a really vulnerable, naked position.”
• “The only way we’re never going to be not hurt is to never love.”
• “Grief doesn’t come with a timetable; it doesn’t come with a scheduler.”
