In this deeply personal episode of Soul Inspiring Business, host Kara Chaffin Donofrio reflects on processing tragedy and finding purpose through faith during difficult times. Following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Kara shares how we can transform grief into compassionate action, align with our God-given gifts, and use our businesses and daily interactions as opportunities to spread love and healing in a divided world.
