[Content Warning]: Domestic violence, child abuse, abandonment, narcissism

Today, Jan is again joined by Hope Rose, a previously sponsored ultra endurance athlete, a self-published author of Unstoppable Vision, a health+wellness book, and featured in many publications such as NBC Nightly News and the Today Show. The emotional conclusion follows Hope's ongoing fight for justice and healing after the unthinkable loss of her son. She describes the bittersweet moment she finally reunited with her child after three years of no contact, and how she ministers to other incarcerated women as a "light in dark places." Hope dismantles the illusion of closure, sharing how some days the grief still feels like a tsunami—yet she chooses daily to "serve love, not trauma." Her story transforms into a mission: exposing how family courts profit from broken families while offering real solutions through her Glow Up Sisterhood, a healing community for mothers navigating similar battles. The episode culminates with her metaphor of the Hope Rose—a flower blooming through cracks in concrete—symbolizing how our deepest wounds can become our purpose. Together, these two parts form a masterclass in resilience, showing how to alchemize injustice into unshakable strength.

[Content Warning]: Domestic violence, child abuse, abandonment, narcissism

Today, Jan is joined by Hope Rose, a previously sponsored ultra endurance athlete, the self-published author of Unstoppable Vision, a health+wellness book, and featured in many publications such as NBC Nightly News and Today Show. In this gripping first installment, Hope Rose takes us through her incredible journey from elite ultra-runner to survivor of unimaginable trauma. She shares how her athletic discipline prepared her for life's hardest battles, including escaping a dangerously abusive relationship where she discovered her partner was still married and manipulating her life. The nightmare escalated when the family court system, which she describes as "legalized child trafficking," allowed her ex to obtain full custody of their son through an ex parte order—with no evidence or due process. Hope recounts her arrest for "custodial interference" after refusing to surrender her child, spending 130 days in jail while her son was placed in foster care. Amidst this darkness, she reveals the spiritual tools that sustained her, including a couple powerful daily forgiveness practices and her unwavering commitment to being "the steward of her story."
