Six years ago, I thought my story ended with grief... but God had a plot twist waiting — and it all started with a DM.

Welcome to another powerful episode of Dear Diaries: Her Story Podcast!

I'm your host, Rose Theo, and today, we're diving deep into Mia’s breathtaking story of faith after loss, healing after heartbreak, and finding love again after widowhood.

After unexpectedly losing her first husband, Mia never imagined marriage would be part of her future. She wasn’t looking for love, but God had a divine plan. In this episode, Mia shares her personal testimony of grieving, letting go, and opening her heart to new love — even when it made no sense.

Through raw honesty and real moments, we explore:

• How God leads you through seasons of grief and healing
• The unexpected ways God brings new love into your life
• Learning to trust divine timing over personal plans
• Letting go of past pain to receive God's promises
• Obedience, faith, and moving forward after deep loss

From almost relocating to Houston to a life-changing DM that led to her now-husband, Mia’s story will leave you inspired, hopeful, and reminded that God's plans are bigger than our brokenness.

If you've ever wondered if love after loss is possible — this is your sign to believe again.

Mia offers wisdom on:

• Hearing God's voice during life's crossroads
• Overcoming fear and emotional walls after heartbreak
• Building a God-centered marriage from a foundation of faith
• Allowing God to write your love story — His way, not yours

Whether you're in a season of waiting, healing, or stepping into something new, Mia’s story is living proof that hope and restoration are real.

What happens when God completely wrecks your relationship goals? In this hilarious, faith-filled, and oh-so-humbling episode of Dear Diaries, Roserbie Theoc sits down with her friend Nancy Cole to unpack the story she never thought she’d tell.

Nancy was minding her business, serving God, staying in her lane — until a quiet, awkward coworker named Lionel started talking about Jesus... and then prophesied her entire life.

Sounds romantic? Not quite. Nancy wasn’t impressed. In fact, she told God this is not my type. But when God has a plan? Oh, He knows how to get your attention.

This episode is raw, funny, and deeply relatable for anyone who’s been single, picky, scared, or straight-up confused about how God writes love stories.

• Why your “list” might be the very thing blocking your blessing
• How to discern if God is really leading you to someone
• Real talk about physical attraction vs. God-ordained connection
• The danger of idolizing relationships & how to keep God first
• How prayer changes your heart before it changes your situation

“I lost everything—my job, my car, my comfort—but that’s exactly when God showed me my purpose.”

What if everything familiar in your life disappeared overnight? Kathleen Senat knows that feeling all too well. After giving birth to her daughter, she found herself stripped of stability and forced to rely on one thing alone—her faith. In this episode, Kathleen shares her powerful journey of rediscovering purpose, walking in purity, and trusting God, even when the path ahead was completely unclear.

As the author of Purely Single: A Journey Filled with Purpose, Kathleen dives deep into what it really means to embrace singleness—not as a waiting room for marriage, but as a season of growth, purpose, and unwavering faith. Whether you're single, divorced, widowed, or simply wondering how to honor God in relationships, this episode is packed with real talk, divine wisdom, and practical steps to navigate your journey.

• How Kathleen went from struggle to purpose after losing everything
• The midnight writing sessions that led to her book’s release
• Why purity isn’t just for young adults—it’s a lifelong calling
• The dangers of rushing into relationships out of pressure or fear
