Finding Belonging: Grief, Identity & the Power of Storytelling with Kimberly Starr

In this heartfelt and thought-provoking episode, I sit down with Kimberly Starr, Suicide Prevention Speaker, Theatre Intimacy Director, and author of 457 Days: A Mother’s Journey Along Grief’s Path. Together, we explore the threads that shape who we are: cultural identity, the impact of grief, the role of art in healing, and the deep human desire to belong. Kimberly shares her powerful journey through loss, advocacy, and connection, while I reflect on my own upbringing, the support of my mother, and how theater helped me find my people.⚠️ Content Disclaimer:This episode contains open and honest discussions about suicide, grief, and loss.
