Katie's Story: A Family's Fight Against Fentanyl


Listen Later

In this deeply moving episode of the Robertson and Easterling Podcast, Craig Robertson sits down with Richard and Kim Johnson, parents of Katie — a vibrant, talented 22-year-old whose life was tragically cut short by fentanyl poisoning. Through tears and courage, Richard and Kim recount Katie's adventurous spirit, her struggles with anxiety during the isolation of COVID, and how one counterfeit pill laced with fentanyl ended her life instantly. They share their journey through grief, their family's path toward healing, and their newfound mission to raise awareness through Walk for Lives, a nationwide movement uniting families affected by fentanyl. The conversation exposes the devastating reach of this epidemic — the leading cause of death among Americans ages 18 to 45 — while offering hope through faith, advocacy, and honest dialogue. This episode is not just about loss, but about love, purpose, and turning unimaginable pain into life-saving action. Learn more or donate at walkforlives.org
