What do you do when your life is shattered in a single night, and you’re left to pick up the broken pieces alone? In this powerful episode of Your Biggest Breakthrough, we sit down with Kimberly Haar, a licensed therapist whose personal story sounds like a movie—but it’s painfully real.

After surviving an unimaginable trauma at the hands of her ex-husband, Kimberly takes us on a raw, faith-filled journey through heartbreak, betrayal, near-death terror, and—miraculously—healing. This conversation is more than just a story. It’s a lifeline.

Whether you’re walking through your own heartbreak, navigating trauma, or just need a reminder that God is still in the business of restoring broken things, this episode will speak straight to your soul.

If you feel too far gone, too broken, or too bitter to be healed, Kimberly’s story will show you what God can do when you trust Him with your pain. Tune in. You won’t forget this one.
