Tara is our last guest for season 3, and her story is an incredible one to end on. Tara speaks with us about losing her daughter, Taylor in a skiing accident. Tara and her family were able to give the gift of life through donating Taylor's organs. They then decided to help form a support group for families who grieve the death of a loved one and also educate about the importance of organ donation. Tara and her husband founded their organization, Taylor's Gift. Their slogan is - Outlive Yourself. We found Tara to be inspiring and uplifting. To go through the loss of a child and to continue to build from that loss is extraordinary. We hope you love her episode!

Georgie, a widow who tragically lost her husband Steve to cancer, shares her heartfelt life journey with us. She recounts the beautiful story of how they met and the extraordinary life they built together. When Steve received his diagnosis, he urged them to "live life", and they truly embraced that mantra.

Georgie's warmth and wisdom shine through, and we were delighted to have the opportunity to record with her. We are eagerly looking forward to sharing her remarkable story with all of you.

Alexandra Wyman is our guest on this week's episode. She tells us her story about losing her husband to suicide and walking that journey as a single mom with a young child.

One of our favorite things about this episode is that Alexandra is trying to change the stigma that is placed around suicide. She was so willing to come on our podcast and share with you all, what she has come to learn through the aftermath of losing her husband.

Alexandra wrote a book called, The Suicide Club. If you are going through something similar that may be a great resource for you.

Chris and Ashley share their story with us about their daughter, Genevieve. Genevieve left this world 15 months ago, which also left a lot of unanswered questions for her parents. As Chris and Ashley have sifted through journals and Genevieve's phone, they have discovered a lot, which led to even more questions.

In this episode, Chris and Ashley share with us so many things about suicide and what kids are going through at such young ages. They also share a medication that Genevieve was using for asthma called Montelukast (Singulair). Like every medication, there are side effects, but one of the side effects of Montelukast (Singulair) is suicide ideation. This is a new side effect that has just been made public by the Black Box Warning issued by the FDA. At the time of Genevieve's passing, they had no idea that this was a side effect. It is not on the box, you have to do some digging to find ALL of the side effects of this medicine.

Chris and Ashley are on a mission to educate while bringing awareness and love to those suffering. We are so proud and feel so honored to be able to share their story with all of you.

Kendyl and Charlie are our guests for this week's episode. They are two young ladies who lost their mother and have come to share their story. These two have been through other trauma and trials as well. Instead of writing about it I am going to let these amazing girls tell you all about it in their episode.

I am inspired by their desire to keep going in spite of the losses that they have been through. We hope you enjoy this episode, and make sure to leave a comment for Kendyl & Charlie.

See you next week!
