Have you ever experienced a loss of a friend or a loved one and felt like you were all alone in your grief? In this episode, my guests talk about how they each lost a loved one to violent crime as teenagers. These unrelated crimes happened just twelve hours apart and only a few miles away from one another. Dara & Kennedy families knew each other but they didn't meet until 2022 in my class as college students eight years later. Their stories are about perseverance and resilience through adversity.
