Living Well Despite Chronic Illness, with Jen Hardy

Finding God in Our Pain

Living Well Despite Chronic Illness with Jen Hardy

Chronic illness is not what defines Jen Hardy and that's why I view her as a remarkable woman. Because of her many challenges in life our conversation covers a variety of topics.

We talk about the meaning of life and how to find it, and the beauty of being in your 50's+. We talked about her homeschooling career with her 7 children, two of whom are on the spectrum. She impressed me when listening to how she learned to have a quality life despite the various challenges but here's why I call her a miracle, she's exceeded and continues to surpass her life expectancy based on a chronic illness that she lives with every day.

Jen has a depth of revelation that has been forged in the midst of serious life adversity.

Of all the interesting things we talked about here's what stood out for me. Jen has made the most of every season of life and every challenge that has presented itself.

Jen doesn't merely exist in her circumstances nor does she simply get through it, she capitalizes on it. Every chapter of her life finds her pressing into God to discover who He is and who she's been created to be with the various challenges that she's experienced.

Be encouraged by the wealth of beauty that Jen Hardy shares with us today!

Live Loved and Thrive!
