    Aug 11 2025

    If you could only spend 5 minutes with our podcast, what would we want you to hear? That is the motivation behind our "QuickTips" episodes.

    Imagine a normal summer day turning into your worst nightmare. For Theo, that day came when her father accidentally ran over her mother with a farm tractor. In a split second, her world shattered. But the story doesn't end there.

    Theo's journey through grief was complicated by more loss:

    - Her trusted counselor died suddenly

    - Her marriage ended in divorce

    - Her father took his own life

    These events would break many people. But Theo found a way to not just survive, but to use her pain to help others.
