With Barbara Patterson + Melissa Palazzo-Hart
We have all experienced overwhelming pain and seemingly impossible moments in life—be them our own, someone else’s, or those of that world.
Today, Melissa and Barb speak frankly about events happening in our collective world and our respective lives, with a reminder to ask ourselves, “What is mine to do in moments like these?”
Barb and Melissa share their own answers to this question with poignancy and hope.
