Welcome to the very first episode of Hope Realized! I’m your host, Megan Salinas, and I’m so excited to begin this journey with you.

In this episode, I share the heart behind this podcast and how a personal prompting led me to write a book on singleness—at a time when I wanted nothing to do with the topic. Through conversations with others in the same season, I discovered a powerful truth: the lies we believe about singleness lose their grip when brought into the light.

Join me as we unpack the lies that keep us discouraged, isolated, and questioning our faith. This season, we’ll hear real stories, honest struggles, and the unwavering hope we have in Christ—because when we shift our focus from what we think we’re lacking to Jesus, we realize that hope was there all along.

Tune in and let’s step into freedom together.
