We asked our listeners to nominate someone they think is truly DIVINE! Here’s one of your finalists…

Katie Hughes
My friend Katie is divine in every sense of the word. She has walked through heartbreak most people could never survive — losing her son, her father, and so many others she’s loved — yet she still moves through the world with a tenderness that takes your breath away. Even when life tries to pull her under, she somehow finds the strength to lift others up. She gives love freely, shows grace even while she’s breaking inside, and would do anything to ease someone else’s pain. Her spirit, her courage, and her capacity to care make her a divine light in a world that desperately needs people like her.
What sets her apart from others is the way she turns her pain into compassion. Instead of becoming hardened by loss, she has become more gentle, more giving, and more aware of the struggles of those around her. Her heart remains open in a world that often closes people down — and that rare, quiet strength is what makes her truly divine.

We asked our listeners to nominate someone they think is truly DIVINE! Here’s one of your finalists…

Rob McAvoy
Rob is one of the founders of Project Southchurch, a community-led initiative to improve the Southchurch area by fostering community spirit, supporting local businesses, and enhancing the environment, aiming to make it a better place to live, work, and visit through events, campaigns, and collaborations with local authorities and police. Rob organizes meetings, business expos, Christmas markets (like ‘Frostbite’), and advocate for better public spaces and transport, focusing on unity and resident engagement. He is the heart of the community and a wonderful leader.
