My special guest is Mandy Capehart

She is the founder of the Restorative Grief Project, an online community that offers support and movement for individuals dealing with grief.
Her extensive experience and expertise have culminated in the release of her memoir and 31-day guidebook, "Restorative: Embracing Our Losses Without Losing Ourselves," in 2021.
