In this powerful episode of A Widow’s Heart, host Pam Lundell talks with Dr. Kimberly Hubenette—a skilled cosmetic dentist, author, and widow—about love, resilience, and the will to keep going after unimaginable loss. Kimberly shares her extraordinary love story with her late husband Mark, a double lung transplant survivor and devoted search-and-rescue volunteer.

Ep 51: Sacred Refuge: Finding Unexpected Shelter in Your Crisis – Lynne Rienstra

Where do you run when crisis hits? When grief, fear, or loss shake your world, is there a safe place to land?
