💙Heart & Soul Beware | November Newsletter💙
👥Gentle Grounding
As we move into a season of gratitude and reflection, I hope this space reminds you that slowing down can also be sacred. November invites us to look back with thankfulness and forward with quiet expectation. Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping Heart & Soul Beware grow in truth and connection.
This month, we shine our light on Dr. Wanda S. Briscoe, founder and CEO of Healing Hearts Global Ministries (HHGM). A breast cancer survivor, author, and global speaker, Dr. Wanda’s work brings faith and restoration to those walking through grief, loss, and healing. Her ministry reminds us that even in our most difficult seasons, God’s grace still meets us with purpose.

“Your pain has a purpose. Your story is a ministry. And your heart can heal.” — Dr. Wanda S. Briscoe
We are honored to feature Dr. Wanda as our November Spotlight. I look forward to joining her on the Monday Motivation Podcast on December 1, 2025, to talk about Beware: Hidden Truths, storytelling, and the faith that binds them together.
If you or someone you know would like to be featured in a future Spotlight, please contact us at mailto:hello@heartandsoulbeware.com.

November’s prompt:
“Is gratitude hiding in the forest of chaos? What is hindering your path of grace??”
This month’s question invites reflection on where gratitude retreats when life feels uncertain — and how we might clear space to see it again. Share your thoughts inside The Circle, and your reflection will automatically enter you into the November Giveaway.
