Finding Joy from Unexpected Sorrow: How I Found (and Continue to Find) My Way to ‘Myself’ Through Divorce, Grief, Illness, and Material Loss


Episode 195


In this profoundly moving episode of Every Day Peace, Dr. Dravon James sits down with Karen Simmons Bethea—a woman of extraordinary strength, insight, and spiritual resilience. With unflinching honesty and heartfelt grace, Karen shares her deeply personal journey through divorce, profound grief, illness, and unexpected material loss—and how, through it all, she uncovered a deeper connection to her authentic self.

This conversation is not about avoiding pain; it’s about honoring it, learning from it, and ultimately using it as a pathway to joy and inner peace. Karen's story is a powerful reminder that even in our darkest seasons, we are being invited to return to ourselves—and to something greater than ourselves.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • How sorrow can become a sacred teacher
  • The power of vulnerability and spiritual grounding
  • Daily practices to reclaim joy, even in the midst of life’s storms

Karen’s journey will inspire you to believe in your own ability to rise, rebuild, and rediscover yourself—no matter what life has taken away. Because sometimes, the path to peace begins where everything else falls apart.
