174-MEMORIAL MONDAY- KATHY WAGNER

A “vivid and moving memoir” that shows the “redemptive blessing of healing and compassion.” ~ Dr. Gabor Matte, Author of The Myth of Normal While we've moved away from our weekly Memorial Monday episodes, they remain a crucial essence of our mission. This week, we're honored to have Kathy Wagner, an author whose work has been recognized by the esteemed Gabor Maté. She joins us to reminisce about her son Tristan: the joys, the challenges, and the profound journey of loving someone entrenched in addiction. Navigating the heartbreak of losing her youngest at just 21 to fentanyl poisoning, Kathy offers insights and lessons that continue to guide her healing process.
