Tonya shares her own story of heartbreak, healing, and what finally grounded her in real, lasting love—the kind that isn’t earned or performative, but rooted in Christ. Whether you’re single, married, ghosted, or just tired of swiping, this conversation will remind you: you’re not too broken for love—and God’s love isn’t just a theory. It’s personal.
