Kate Seamons: When Loss Motivates Action

About this episode

Kate Seamons discusses her grief journey and how it inspired her to create Rainy Day Boxes to help others cope with loss.

Why has mourning a loss motivated so many of our guests into some kind of action? Larry started this podcast as a way to honor his late wife, Sarah, and help others try to understand and cope with grief. Today he speaks with Kate Seamons about her grief journey following the death of her husband, Ben, and how it propelled her to create Rainy Day Boxes - a way to help others suffering from a loss or other difficult life experiences through the people who love them.
