The day I found out I was poor

This episode of Grace Found Me takes listeners into the moment Andrea’s childhood innocence shifted—the day she realized her family was poor. Growing up surrounded by love, humility, and genuine friendships, she never knew she was poor until age thirteen, when a classmate’s new blouses and bought lunches revealed a contrast she had never noticed. Through honest storytelling, Andrea reflects on family dynamics, school life, and the quiet strength formed in seasons of scarcity, showing how grace covered her even when resources were few. This heartfelt episode reminds listeners that humble beginnings may shape us, but they never define the destiny God has prepared. http://written-with-purpose-ln47ix.subscribepage.io/

Navigating my arrival in the United States

This episode captures the raw, unfiltered journey of stepping onto American soil for the very first time—wide‑eyed, hopeful, and determined. You walk listeners through the emotional layers of leaving home, the shock of a new culture, and the quiet moments where faith had to carry you through uncertainty. You reflect on the challenges of adjusting to a new environment, learning the rhythm of a different society, and finding your footing as a young woman determined to build a life from the ground up. From immigration hurdles to moments of loneliness, from unexpected kindness to the resilience that kept you moving forward, this episode becomes a testimony of courage, transition, and God’s sustaining grace. It’s honest, heartfelt, and deeply inspiring—an invitation for anyone who has ever started over to remember that new beginnings may feel overwhelming, but they are often the birthplace of purpose.

The testimony that saved a life

In this episode, I share one of the most powerful moments of my faith journey — the day I learned that a testimony I shared years earlier became the very thing God used to save someone’s life. What began as a simple conversation, a moment of obedience, and a willingness to be vulnerable turned into a lifeline for a woman who was silently battling despair. She remembered the words I spoke, the hope I carried, and the God I testified about — and in her darkest moment, that testimony stopped her from ending her life. This episode is about the power of obedience, the weight of our words, and the truth that your story carries deliverance for someone else. You may never know who is listening, who is watching, or who is holding onto the hope you released. I talk about: How God uses ordinary moments to do extraordinary thingsWhy your testimony matters more than you thinkThe unseen impact of sharing your storyThe importance of speaking life, even when you feel smallHow God can turn your pain into someone else’s survivalThe reminder that obedience is never wastedIf you’ve ever wondered whether your voice matters… If you’ve ever questioned whether your story has purpose… If you’ve ever felt like your journey was too broken to help anyone… This episode will remind you that God uses what you survived to help someone else live. Your testimony is not just your story — it is someone’s rescue, someone’s reminder, someone’s reason to keep going. May this episode encourage you to speak boldly, share freely, and trust that God is working through you in ways you may never see.

Hiding in the back

In this episode, Andrea shares a deeply personal chapter of her journey — the season when she doubted her brilliance, questioned her intelligence, and hid in the back because low self-esteem whispered she wasn’t enough. Battling body‑weight insecurity and internal shame, she learned how God uses community, encouragement, and quiet moments to pull His daughters out of hiding and into purpose. This episode is a reminder that confidence grows in obedience, healing begins in truth, and the back row is not a permanent address.

Michael., Mikhail, my why

In this episode, I open my heart and share the story behind the two names that changed my life — Michael and Mikhail. I talk about the season when a doctor told me I wouldn’t conceive, the years I walked as a single mother, and the faith that carried me through every fear, every prayer, and every breakthrough. I share how my son Mikhail survived meningitis as a baby, despite doctors saying he would never hear or walk — yet he walked at nine months and is now preparing to enter PA school, stepping boldly into a future only God could write. And I reflect on Michael, whose presence, strength, and love helped shape me into the woman and mother I am today. This episode is about miracles, motherhood, resilience, and purpose. It’s about how God rewrites stories, how He restores what was spoken over us, and how He uses our children to remind us of His faithfulness. If you’ve ever faced a diagnosis, a limitation, a label, or a moment where life told you “you can’t,” this episode will remind you that God’s word is final. My sons are my testimony. My sons are my miracle. My sons are my why.

The time my life fell apart

Andrea speaks with unflinching honesty about the dissolution of her marriage and the shattering of the identity she had quietly built around it. She names the grief that no one prepares you for — not the end of a relationship, but the end of who you thought you were in that relationship. She walks the listener through how she found her way back to herself — not through resolution or an easy redemption arc, but through the slow, sacred work of choosing to let God hold the pieces while she breathed. This episode gives language to a pain that many women carry silently, in both ministry and professional spaces, and it offers no cheap comfort — only honest company
