Episode Synopsis

Grief doesn’t have a timestamp, and healing doesn’t mean you forget. In this soul-stirring close to Mental Health Awareness Month, Dr. Steve sits down with Rev. Dr. Damien Davis to explore the sacred tension between pain and purpose.

Dr. Davis, who experienced the unimaginable loss of his daughter, Brooklyn, opens up about how grief reshaped his theology, impacted his mental health, and led him to a deeper purpose. Together, they explore how spiritual life and mental wellness can coexist, side by side—even when the path is full of questions, tears, and unexpected turns.

Whether your grief is fresh or buried deep, this episode offers comfort, clarity, and community for the journey forward.

🔑 Topics Include:
The grief no one talks about—but everybody carries
How to distinguish between grief and depression
