Monday, 12 January, 2026
What do you do when life’s challenges begin before you can even remember them?In this episode of The BraveHearted Woman Podcast, I am with Melony Brown — author, speaker, podcast host, and survivor — to talk about overcoming adversity through faith, mindset, and unwavering trust in God.Melony shares her extraordinary story of suffering a stroke at age two, living for decades with unexplained neurological symptoms, and finally receiving a diagnosis of Moyamoya disease at age 45. After years of debilitating migraines, multiple mini-strokes, and invisible struggles, Melony underwent brain surgery and discovered that a portion of her brain had lacked oxygen her entire life — yet God sustained her every step of the way.We explore the power of mindset, the importance of having a “fight verse,” and why fixing your eyes on God changes everything when fear and uncertainty threaten to overwhelm you. Melony explains how Scripture must become a reflex — not a reference — and how praise, worship, and spiritual discipline help women stand firm in the middle of trials.This episode is filled with encouragement for Christian women facing health challenges, emotional exhaustion, or seasons where giving up feels tempting. You’ll walk away reminded that while God doesn’t promise a life without trouble, He does promise His presence, strength, and faithfulness through it all.If you’re ready to stop shrinking back, strengthen your faith, and learn how to keep moving forward — this conversation is for you.Timestamps:0:00 - Guest Intro1:52 - The BraveHeart Story of Melony Brown on childhood stroke and Moya-moya disease9:35 - How Melony’s faith grown through challenges12:18 - Why mindset is important when facing a challenge15:08 - What is a fight verse?18:28 - How to deal with fear21:37 - What makes Melony’s books an “interactive survival guide”?25:03 - Melony’s #1 tip for midlife womenQuotations:“Mindset is everything — how you respond matters more than the challenge itself.” - Melony Brown“God doesn’t promise to take the challenge away, but He promises to give us what we need.” - Melony Brown“Fix your eyes on God.
