#162 - Joanna Stokinger

In this episode of The 10 Ninety Podcast, Mason talks with Joanna Stokinger about losing her grandson Anthony in 2021 and walking with her daughter through the chaos of grief and a military court-martial. Joanna shares what it was like to sit in the tension of anger and forgiveness, and how she's leaned on her background as a victim advocate to keep moving forward. She talks about the small, practical ways people can show up—consistency, offering choices, and taking care of everyday tasks—and why those things matter more than the right words. Her story is raw, painful, and a powerful look at resilience.
