About this listen

 In this deeply moving episode, I had the privilege of sitting down with Kim Patton, author of Nothing Wasted, to talk about her powerful journey through faith, loss, love, and redemption. Kim opened up about the highs and lows of her first ten years of marriage—the struggles that tested her faith and the grace that held her together.

We also talked about one of the most defining seasons of her life: the moment she received the heartbreaking news of infertility after waiting for ten long years. Kim spoke with raw honesty about how she wrestled with hope, grief, and identity—and how God turned her pain into purpose.

Halfway through our conversation, we delved into one of her favorite subjects—open adoption—and how it reshaped her understanding of love, family, and God’s redemptive work. Every part of Kim’s story reminds us that no part of our journey is wasted when placed in God’s hands.

📘 Nothing Wasted is a beautifully honest memoir that offers comfort and courage to anyone walking through disappointment, waiting, or loss.
