In this special episode of Pod Have Mercy, we honor the life and legacy of our dear friend, Bobby Wooley.

Just weeks before his passing, we had the gift of sitting down with Bobby to record a conversation filled with honesty, warmth, and the unmistakable heart he carried for Chapelwood.

In this episode, we revisit a meaningful clip from that conversation and reflect on the impact Bobby had on so many of us.Grief is complicated. It is personal. It is communal. And it often raises difficult questions, especially for our families and children.

To help guide that conversation, we also revisit wisdom from our previous episode with child psychologist Dr. Michelle Forrester, who offers practical and compassionate guidance on how to help children (and ourselves) process loss, navigate hard emotions, and find comfort in the midst of sorrow.

This episode is both a tribute and a resource - a space to remember, to grieve, to give thanks, and to learn how we walk through loss together. We hope it encourages you as you honor the ones you love and hold close the gift of today.
