Temple Bound

Finding Peace in Grief with Tanya Kimball


Listen Later

In this episode, we sit down with Tanya Kimball. Over the last 18 months, Tanya has navigated the unimaginable loss of her husband, Drew, and two of her sons, Braden and Grahm.

This conversation isn't just about tragedy; it’s a masterclass in the "paradigm of two truths" how extreme sorrow and extreme miracles can exist in the same moment. Tanya shares her raw experience with "dying without death," the power of recording daily "evidence of God," and how the temple became her survival-grade "modern-day Liahona."

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • The "Silent Saturday" Perspective: Understanding the gap between the "Friday" of crucifixion/loss and the "Sunday" of resurrection/promises.
  • Mental Health Stewardship: Why asking your child "What is your biggest worry?" can be a life-saving intervention.
  • The God of Compensation: How Tanya identifies miracles and "heart rocks" amidst devastating grief.
  • Recruiting an Army of Angels: The literal power of family history and temple work in providing strength to those still on earth.
  • The "I Freaking Love You" Legacy: How a simple phrase from Tanya’s husband became a movement of connection and validation.

We know that the topics of grief, suicide, and mental health are heavy, and we hope Tanya’s story provided a beacon of light for whatever "Saturday" you might be walking through.
