We Are On This Journey Together!

Life has a way of breaking us — then inviting us to heal. Here on It’s Been a Journey, we don’t shy away from the hard stuff. This is a sacred space where we unpack pain, purpose, and everything in between. Whether you’re navigating grief, divorce, faith, or forgiveness — you’re not alone.

Hosted by Shenelle, each episode is filled with real talk, spiritual insight, and powerful stories of healing, restoration, and rising again.

MEET THE HOST

I’m Shenelle, the host of It’s Been a Journey Podcast. My life has been a tapestry of trials and triumphs, woven together with threads of resilience and faith. I’ve walked the path of a four-time divorcee and five-time wife, a teenage mother, and a survivor of verbal and physical abuse, rape, infertility, loss, and grief. My journey has been anything but easy, but through it all, I’ve never given up.

Each of these experiences, as painful as they were, has shaped me into the woman I am today—a woman who understands the power of healing, the importance of self-love, and the strength found in the darkest moments. God has blessed me with the opportunity to share my story, but more importantly, to create a safe space for others who are on similar journeys of healing.

 

It’s Been a Journey is my way of extending a hand to anyone who’s been through struggle, heartache, or hardship. This platform is a place where voices are heard, stories are shared, and the weight of the world feels a little lighter. Through honest conversations and authentic stories, we provide a space to heal, grow, and inspire each other to keep going—because, no matter the battle, we are never alone.

This is not just my journey; it’s ours. Thank you for being part of this powerful community. Tune in, listen, and embrace the growth that lies ahead for you.
