    23/06/2026 | 43 mins.
    For years, Robbi Ann Jan looked like she had it all. A successful career, thriving businesses, a growing online platform and the life many people dream of. But behind the success was heartbreak, unanswered questions, and a search for something deeper.

    • Discovering her husband’s affair and rebuilding her life from scratch
    • The heartbreak that shaped her identity and future relationships
    • Why success, money and followers didn't bring fulfillment
    • The difference between healing yourself and surrendering to faith
    • Her journey from a "Sunday Christian" to a deeply personal relationship with God
