From Surviving to Thriving with Nikki Hardy (HELD Series)

Find Hope Here with Teresa Whiting - Christian Women (Bible Study, Faith, Sexuality, Freedom from Shame)

Have you ever felt like you were merely surviving, not thriving? Meet Nikki Hardy, a cancer thriver who transformed her life and learned how to truly live despite her circumstances. Her story is one of faith, resilience, and hope and she shares it beautifully in her book Breathe Again. But this episode isn’t just for cancer patients or survivors, it’s for anyone going through a hard time be it in your marriage, finance, or whatever life throws at you.
I often listen to audiobooks while running errands or cleaning my house. The day I started Breathe Again by Niki Hardy, my house got a thorough cleaning because I did NOT want to stop listening. Niki writes with humor, wit, and godly wisdom. Niki is not merely a cancer survivor but a thriver who believes life doesn't have to be pain-free to be full. In between scrubbing toilets and mopping floors, I was texting them all and telling them they MUST read her book. I know you're gonna love this conversation!
