When the Story Changes: Grief, Abuse, and the Courage to Keep Going with Sarah Labriel

In this episode, Sarah Labriel shares her powerful journey as a cross-cultural worker through joy, sudden loss, widowhood with two young children, and eventually a second marriage marked by hidden emotional and spiritual abuse. She describes how she came to recognize covert narcissism, set healthy boundaries, and pursue truth and healing. Along the way, we explore how global workers can discern unhealthy patterns, bring hidden pain into the light, and honor the image-bearers in their homes and communities.
