There’s a particular kind of exhaustion that comes from facing battles on multiple fronts-maybe you’re navigating the deep hurt of a marriage ending, or feeling trapped by anxiety, or wrestling with an addiction that whispers you’re too far gone. If that resonates, you might find a companion in Broken to Blessed. Hosted by Randi Tisdall, this podcast comes from a place of lived experience, not theory. Randi speaks openly about her own journey through addiction, depression, and the raw reality of divorce, framing these struggles within a Christian context without offering simplistic answers. Each episode feels like a honest conversation about the messy, non-linear path toward healing, where faith and practical mental health support intersect. You’ll hear discussions on rebuilding life after loss, managing daily anxiety, finding strength in recovery, and the gradual process of moving from a place of feeling shattered toward one of hope and blessing. It’s for anyone who believes God is bigger than their problems but still needs tangible support while in the thick of it. This podcast serves as a reminder that you’re not alone in the struggle, offering both spiritual encouragement and real-world perspectives for those seeking to improve their mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
