Join us for a very honest, beautiful discussion on dealing with grief. Karen Houck lost her daughter, Alyssa, in November of 2011. She describes her grief as 'a bag of rocks that you carry with you wherever you go.' After laying on the couch for many months, she realized she couldn't quit, so she started Alyssas Wishes, an organization dedicated to preserving the memory of her daughter by focusing on acts of kindness, fostering community connections, and promoting literacy. One of those acts of kindness includes painting rocks with words of encouragement and leaving them for others to find. You can read more about Karen's organization at www.alyssaswishes.org Perseverance...the word usually has a negative connotation.

Join us while we talk to Lauren Doyel, a KU Speech and Language Pathology Master's student. Lauren lived a different childhood than most of us. She stuttered and learned how to deal with it on her own by using a lot of creativity. Gradually, with the help of a speech pathologist when she was a teenager, she learned mechanisms to get through her day to day life. This then caused her to want to do the same for other kids and adults she came across, so she decided to make it her life's work. Truly inspiring! We hope you enjoy it!
