Echos of Impact Ep. 29: When God Gives You More Than You Can Handle — Meagan’s Story of Loss, Faith, and Holding On
⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode contains sensitive content related to infant loss, sudden death of a parent, caregiving stress, and miscarriage. Please take care while listening.
In this deeply moving episode of Echos of Impact, Briana and Cherise sit down with Meagan Spires—a stay-at-home mama, military wife, and woman of quiet strength—to talk about grief, healing, and the quiet faithfulness of God.
Meagan opens up about a devastating 14-month stretch that included the loss of her full-term son Camden, the unexpected death of her mother, and the weight of becoming the sole caregiver for her elderly grandfather—all while her husband was deployed overseas. Through tearful memories and honest reflection, Meagan shares how journaling, Scripture, and the presence of God carried her through.
Despite unimaginable heartbreak, Meagan’s story is one of hope. She’s learning to share her testimony boldly, not because it’s neatly wrapped up—but because even in the middle of it, God is still moving.
