Today y'all get to meet one of my Fight Shine sisters, Abby Puckett, who has shown me what it means to walk in affliction and point back to Jesus IN it all. Today on the episode you'll hear Abby and I walk through her obvious fight with her daughter Aly's battle with Hydrocephalus, the back to back losses of her mother and best friend, and the shock that comes from almost losing the kid who isn't your "sick" child. We candidly talk about the pressure struggle puts on family and friends and how to choose a wider lens in order to love people well through your own suffering.

I feel like you are getting an inside listen into Abby and I's private voice note conversations here. We share a little insight into our own marriages and the lessons we've learned in how to keep things healthy at home even in chaos.

Abby is a mama of three, a wife to her wonderful best friend Jamie, and a clean-wine enthusiast as a Scout and Cellar Executive Director. But I also know her as a lover of people, a local encourager of women, and a passionate follower of Jesus. She is a GEM and I can't wait for y'all to meet my bold and loving friend, Abby.
