When people just sit with us right in the darkness, in the deepest, darkest moments, when we are suffering, and they just sit next to us and they just say: I don't even know what to say right now, but I'm here, I'm sorry, and they hug us and they feel with us, that's it, and that that's legitimately. All you need is someone to just be there.
What does it mean to truly suffer and still find the strength to carry on? In this deeply moving episode of the 'Finding Strength' podcast, host Matt Quackenbush sits down with Bethany Tenney to explore just that. Bethany shares her remarkable life story, shedding light on how she has navigated through immense suffering and turned it into a source of strength and gratitude. This episode is a heartfelt conversation that touches on overcoming trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, and grief.
One of the key takeaways is the importance of human connection during our darkest times. Bethany emphasizes that sometimes, all we need is someone to sit with us in our pain, not to fix us, but simply to be there. This simple act of presence can offer incredible support and strength. The episode also highlights the Brighten A Day movement, started by Bethany and her family in memory of her daughter.
This movement encourages people to perform random acts of kindness and share them using the hashtag #brightenaday. It's a beautiful reminder of how small acts can make a big difference in spreading kindness and comfort. Throughout their discussion, Matt and Bethany delve into finding gratitude and meaning in life, even amidst suffering. Bethany's relationship with her children and family has been a cornerstone in her journey, helping her cope with loss and find joy in the little things.
If you're seeking inspiration and practical advice on dealing with life's toughest challenges, this episode offers valuable insights and heartfelt stories that will resonate deeply.
