Summary

If you’ve been following me on social media, you may have seen that I posted a video about losing a bet and getting pregnant. As Paul Harvey famously said, “and here’s the rest of the story.”

I didn’t tell the world my struggle: I battled anxiety and depression throughout my pregnancy.

On this episode of Fearless, I share about my recent challenges and about a God who pierces darkness with light. While I have constantly felt like I was surviving and not thriving (anyone else relate?!), I know God has been with me.

In the days leading up to Christmas, I have been thanking God for His blessings and holding my precious newborn daughter, Georgia Graham Lynch.

I hope you’re able to find joy this holiday season, too. I wish you a very Merry Christmas and happy new year!
