Bold Moves with Wanjiru Kihusa
Episode 10: Grieve the Dream, Embrace the Gift - Living gratefully through life’s disappointments.
“Occasionally, weep deeply over the life that you hoped would be…” — John Piper
In this deeply personal episode, I reflect on the quiet grief of unmet expectations—dreams that didn’t unfold as I had hoped. From the pain of not having more than one child, to closing my nonprofit, to leaving home for a new life abroad, and facing unexpected realities in marriage, I share the raw and real moments that shaped me.
But I also explore how deep gratitude is often born from deep grief. I speak about the beauty I’ve found in what is—the joy of raising my son, the fulfillment in my current work, and the unwavering support of my husband. This episode is an invitation to grieve honestly, trust God fully, and embrace the life you have with open hands and a grateful heart.
