Kenra Helps Others Heal After Personal Tragedy
Our Last Meal: Loss, Grief and Food
09/20/23 • 62 min
I think sometimes about the saying “God never gives us more than we can handle.” I’m not religious but I do find some solace in this saying. There’s something reassuring that an all-mighty creator would take time out of her day (yes, I said her - suck an egg if you’ve got a problem with it) - take time out of her day to bully us. But only bully us because it’s not too much. There’s something comforting about the inherent silliness of this. And whether it’s the ability to tell ourselves these things or to get through tragedy, humans are resilient in a way that we really are capable of handling almost anything that comes our way.
My guest this week has no pretense about what she’s been through - tragedies that could have derailed her. She doesn’t shy away from her grieving process and the journey she and her children have been on to heal and we are all lucky that she is willing to share her story.

Lauren Talks About How Her Mother’s Alzheimer’s Affected Her Life
Our Last Meal: Loss, Grief and Food
02/14/24 • 49 min
I think one of the character traits I admire most in another person is the ability to fully throw themselves into something they’re passionate about. I’m not just talking about the normal levels of fandom or interest either. I mean the people who find an interest and set out to understand it at the most mechanical level. You’ve met these people before - the ones who mention a new interest in cooking to you in passing and then a few months later they can cook a high-end, four-course meal. Or the person who gets interested in guitar and makes it their goal to be the next Jack White (some people would say Eric Clapton here and fair enough but I have a special place in my heart for the White Stripes).
There are a lot of reasons people do this. Curiosity is certainly a big driver but I don’t think that fully explains it. It’s more than curiosity - bordering perhaps on obsession. There are those among us who just want and need to know and I love that. I love reading about their passions, hearing about them, and talking about them. My guest this week has made an incredibly successful career out of learning and sharing - and I promise you that I’m not fully doing her work justice. I present to you one of the more interesting conversations that I’ve been fortunate enough to do and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did.
