She created her podcast And Then Everything Changed, featuring guest interviews about pivotal moments in their life and the decisions that define them, to be able to learn about her guests and share those conversations with listeners who love stories of compassion, hardship, resilience, and grit. She think sharing stories is one of the most powerful ways they have to connect, to understand each other better, and to remember none of them are alone. She firmly believe stories can help them heal.
