    Jul 23 2025

    In this week’s quiet moment together, we step into the heart of memory. Why do some moments stay—while others fade like petals in the wind? Whether you’re caring for a loved one with dementia or simply reflecting on the stories that linger in your own soul, this episode gently explores the emotional fingerprints of memory… and why what they remember might matter more than we realize.


    A whisper of insight, a pause for reflection, and as always—The Garden is waiting.

  • Gracie Land: A Sacred Retreat into the Heart of Dementia
    Jul 16 2025

    In this tender solo episode, Jess opens the gate to Gracie Land — a symbolic garden where those with dementia retreat for safety, simplicity, and emotional memory. She shares the story behind the garden and the five whispers every caregiver needs to hear when navigating the heartbreaking beauty of regression. This is not a step-by-step guide — it’s a heart-to-heart, a soft place to land, and an invitation to stop chasing and start meeting your loved one right where they are.

    Because in Gracie Land… the petals fall in reverse.
    And that’s precisely where love still blooms.
