How Kathy Met Alistair: A Love Story of Second Chances, Blended Family & Faith

How'd You Meet

Show Notes

In this episode of The How’d You Meet Podcast, I’m joined by author Kathy Pitman, who shares the beautiful and unexpected story of how she met her husband, Alistair. A journey that began through a book and continued in a school carpark and with six teens in tow.

Kathy opens up about finding love again, marrying for a second time, and navigating the joys and challenges of blending a family. Together, we talk honestly about faith, healing, and what it looks like to build a healthy, God-centred marriage after loss and change.

This conversation is filled with wisdom, hope, and practical encouragement for anyone considering marriage, dating with intention, or trusting God with their future love story.

Kathy is the author of My Story, My Song: A Collection of Devotions to Offer Comfort and Hope to the Brokenhearted, and her story is a powerful reminder that God is always at work, even in the most unexpected places.
