Ep 52. Living Present with Defiant Joy with Kate Merrick
In the midst of her young daughters battle with cancer, Kate Merrick shut down her social media and hasn’t looked back. She has written two books on her personal journey through grief and wrestling with God while embracing the good gift of life away from the distractions online. Kate has a raw and honest way of conveying truth and I just loved our conversation. We laugh hard and go deep.

Ep 51. Helping Children Walk Through Loss & Grief with Lisa Appelo
Lisa Appelo, Author of “Life Can Be Good Again” is back again this week to offer insight and encouragement for parents and caregivers helping a child through loss and grief. Every child is so very unique in their response and acceptance of loss. Understanding how to provide a safe space, compassion and understanding is so important.
Lisa’s experience of losing her husband suddenly, leaving her a widow and single mother of 7 propelled her into writing and speaking on grief to encourage others in their own journeys. She is a sound voice of biblical wisdom and hope!
