Grace In The Grind: Lindsay’s Journey
Welcome to Grace in the Grind: Lindsay’s Journey, a raw and honest podcast about finding light in the darkest moments. I’m Lindsay, and this is my real-time journey through chronic illness, medical trauma, and the quiet, everyday courage it takes to keep showing up. What started with a sudden collapse in a bathroom in 2009 became a years-long path of surgeries, setbacks, and unexpected strength. This show is my way of walking through it all—past and present—with grace, grit, and unfiltered truth. Each episode is part memoir, part meditation. I’ll take you behind hospital curtains and into the small victories, the painful realizations, the laughter, and the resilience it takes to face a body that doesn’t always cooperate. If you’ve ever struggled, if you’re learning to hold joy and pain at the same time, or if you just want to feel less alone—come sit with me. This isn’t just my story. It might be yours, too.
