The From Loss2Life Podcast serves as a platform to embrace moments of loss through storytelling while also sharing our life experiences, so we can all learn how to go from loss to a fulfilled life - no matter what! Founded on the biblical word in Isaiah 61:1-3, verse 3 says, “and provide for those who grieve in Zion--to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of despair.” This is the ultimate intent we hope for our listeners.
