When There Seems To Be No Hope with Kath...

Debra Fileta, M.A., LPC and Creator of TrueLoveDates.com
About this episode

Today on the podcast, I am talking to the amazing Katherine Wolf.

In her 20s, after the birth of her first child, Katherine experienced a devastating massive stroke that left her paralyzed and turned her life completely upside down.


In this on-air counseling session, we talk through this horrific season in her life and what it means to look for hope when there seems to be no hope. We talk about medical trauma, and how she has processed these things moving forward. We talk about her childhood, and how God was preparing her for suffering, even from a young age.

It is one of the most encouraging episodes, so go give it a listen!
