Crisis What Crisis?

Christina Perri on fame, grief and turning pain into purpose


Listen Later

Multi-platinum singer-songwriter Christina Perri is best known for her hits A Thousand Years and Jar of Hearts, but behind her music lies a deeply personal story of resilience.

From battling lifelong mental health challenges to navigating the heartbreak of miscarriage and stillbirth, Christina has endured unthinkable loss—including the tragic passing of her daughter Rosie in 2020. But through it all, she has transformed her grief into action, advocating for maternal healthcare reform and using her platform to inspire others.

In this episode, Christina opens up about her struggles with addiction, the pressures of fame, and the lessons she’s learned as a mother. She shares how she found the strength to keep moving forward, why she’s fighting to change medical protocols for pregnancy loss, and how music continues to be her guiding force.
