When MelAnn’s husband was rushed into emergency surgery and woke up without his leg, everything she knew about safety, identity, and stability collapsed in an instant. But through the Holy Spirit, sacred rhythm, nervous system renewal, and God’s undeniable nearness, she discovered the divine cadence that now anchors her life — and the lives of countless women she serves.
Today’s episode is tender, grounding, and holy — the kind of conversation that reaches the woman who feels like life just threw her off a cliff without warning.
When MelAnn’s husband suddenly faced an emergency amputation, she found herself thrust into a crisis she could have never prepared for. But God had been preparing her — through rhythm, restoration, nervous system healing, and a sacred lifestyle she now calls divine cadence.
In this powerful conversation, MelAnn shares how the Holy Spirit guided her step-by-step through shock, medical chaos, caregiving, financial uncertainty, and parenting a child with severe anxiety. You’ll hear how God used somatic movement, Scripture, aromatherapy, and daily rhythms to keep her from falling apart — and how He placed the right people in the right places at the exact right time.
This episode is for you if you’ve ever been blindsided, overwhelmed, or thrown into a season that demanded more than you thought you could give.
You’ll learn how God meets you, steadies you, strengthens you, and carries you… even when you do not know what to pray.
