2025 has been a year of highs and lows for Kate Thurman, but through it all she has been able to hold on to her faith, her family and her gifts.
She release her book BEAUTY BEYOND THE TEARS, which became an instant Amazon bestseller. Throughout the year she returned as a co-host for Cyrus Webb & Friends and hosted her own show The Kate Thurman Show. As the year is coming to an end she also released her debut single FAITH THAT CARRIES ME.
Kate, first of all congratulations on the release of your book Beauty Beyond the Tears: Finding Strength After Loss. What has it been like for you to see the response?
Thank you so much! It’s been an emotional and beautiful experience. To see the way people have connected with my story has been humbling. I wrote this book to help others who felt like no one understood what they were going through—to remind them that they are not alone. Hearing from people who say, “That’s exactly how I felt,” lets me know I’m walking in my purpose.
You are able to share with the world some personal things when it comes to your own journey of loss. Did you find it part of your healing to talk about it?
Yes, definitely. God gave me the peace that surpasses all understanding and the courage to tell my story in the midst of my pain. Sharing wasn’t easy, but it became a part of how I healed and how I was able to help others heal too.
Outside of the book you are a co-host of a show with your husband called GRACEFUL GATHERINGS WITH THE THURMANS and your own solo show called The Kate Thurman Show. What has that been like to have a place where you can share the stories of others?
It’s been such a blessing. I truly love giving others the space to be heard, seen, and celebrated. There’s so much power in storytelling—it connects us. Both shows give me the opportunity to highlight everyday people doing extraordinary things, and to use media to uplift and inspire.
When we first met you talked to me about being shy. That is hard to see these days. What has helped you to come outside of your shell?
That’s true—I was very shy growing up. But God had a bigger plan, and He kept pushing me outside of my comfort zone. Through prayer, obedience, and embracing the calling on my life, I found my confidence. I realized that staying quiet was holding back someone else’s breakthrough.
Your husband and you also run a non-profit organization. Do you think helping others is just a part of who you are?
Absolutely—it’s who we are at the core. My husband and I are givers by nature. God placed it on our hearts to start Angelically Blessed Inc. so we could serve families in need, especially those facing financial hardship. We don’t do it for recognition—we do it because it’s our calling.
Your sharing your story has helped people to connect with you on a personal level. What has that been like for you to see how others are helped through you?
It’s such a powerful feeling. Every time someone says, “Thank you for sharing—you helped me realize I’m not alone,” it reminds me that my pain had a purpose. It’s not easy being vulnerable, but it’s worth it if it helps someone else start their healing.
The release of BEAUTY BEYOND THE TEARS is opening up other doors for you as well. What do you hope readers of the book take away from it?
I hope they see that no matter what they’ve been through, they can rise. I want them to feel seen, encouraged, and reminded that there is still life, purpose, and beauty beyond the pain. Healing is real. God’s love is real. And their story isn’t over.
Thanks for your time, Kate. How can our audience stay connected with you?
