Description

I’m Patty Martin-Guerra, and this podcast proves that your greatest love story is coming, I found love at nearly 50 – not by luck, but by surrendering myself to the Lord..

For years, I believed ”love wasn’t in the cards for women like me” and I attracted toxic relationships because my wounded inner voice believed I deserved less than God’s best.
Everything changed when I embraced Matthew 6:33 says, ”But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”

When I stopped chasing love and started pursuing wholeness, letting God heal my past traumas, everything shifted. If I found an incredible, healthy, God sent love at nearly 50, having two kids and a complicated past, so can you. Age isn’t your enemy. Your children aren’t obstacles. Your divorce isn’t a scarlet letter.

Every Tuesday, we meet in this space where divorced women become whole, and broken hearts become wise hearts.

Sister, your love story isn’t over – it’s just getting to the good part. Subscribe and leave a review so this message reaches more women who need to hear it. Blessings!
