In this moving episode, I sit down with Kathryn Henry, author of A Dime to Say I Love You and board director at Lululemon, for a powerful and heartfelt conversation about love, loss, and transforming pain into purpose.
Kathryn opens up about her extraordinary journey, from a childhood marked by trauma to leading in global corporate roles, caregiving for her late wife Lisa through cancer, and finding spiritual meaning after unimaginable loss. Through every chapter, she reminds us how healing, faith, and self-awareness can turn grief into growth.
In this episode, you'll hear:
Healing Beyond the Physical: Why true recovery includes emotional, spiritual, and mental well-being, not just medical "fixes."
Faith vs. Fear: Her evolution from religious guilt to spiritual freedom, meditation, and living with divine awareness.
The AFGO Mindset (Another Freaking Growth Opportunity): How humor and perspective help her reframe life's toughest lessons.
Love That Transcends Loss: The sacred promise she made, and how it continues to guide her healing journey.
Redefining Success: From personal training to the boardroom, Kathryn shares why purpose, not position, determines fulfillment.
India, Intuition, and Inner Peace: Transformative experiences at ashrams and Ayurvedic retreats that deepened her connection to self and spirit.
This episode is for anyone navigating grief, caregiving, or a major life transition, and for those seeking a reminder that love, faith, and inner strength can reshape even the darkest moments.
