415 | Choosing Life — Brooke & Kristen’s Stories of Hope, with Nancy Alcorn

In recognition of Eating Disorder Awareness Week, Mercy’s Founder and President Nancy Alcorn sits down with Mercy graduates Brooke (2003) and Kristen (2026) to share a deeply moving conversation about hope, healing, and the power of choosing life. 

Together, they highlight how God meets us in our darkest places, how community and mentorship spark courage, and how one woman’s “yes” can impact another’s future. Their intertwined stories remind us that while our struggles may differ, the healing found in Jesus is the same, and the steps of obedience we take today can echo for generations.

In this episode, we cover:

• What it looks like to move from self-reliance to receiving help and community.
• The spiritual tools Mercy provides to walk in freedom beyond graduation.
• Why choosing life is both a moment and an ongoing journey of faith.
