Inspiration Continues! From Orphan to Inspiration | Bettie’s 11 Miracles, Faith, Near-Death Survival & Finding Hope
Description
In this powerful episode of Wildly Unplug, Lauren sits down with Betty, author of From Orphan to Inspiration: How 11 Miracles from God Helped Me Escape Death and Find Hope.
Originally recorded in October 2024 and released in 2026 — this conversation feels divinely timed.
Bettie shares her journey growing up in Uganda, surviving multiple near-death experiences, almost losing her life during the birth of her twin boys, and how a calling from the Holy Spirit led her to write a memoir centered around 11 life-changing miracles.
We talk about:
• Escaping death and surviving trauma
• Faith, resilience, and listening to God’s voice
• Overcoming fear as a first-time author (English as a second language)
• Raising faith-driven entrepreneurial kids (Simon Twins Tie Dye)
• Gardening in Oregon and connecting with nature
• Why nature is one of the best ways to reconnect with God
This episode is about hope — especially for those walking through hardship, grief, or uncertainty.
If you need a reminder that God is still present… this conversation is for you.
