This week's guest, Richard Wilmore, came from trauma with a Father that started battling cancer when Richard was in 2nd Grade. He remembers exactly what he was eating when he heard the news. Many years on, after a traumatic divorce, Richard finds himself helping to run Hearts Need Art,  a nonprofit based in San Antonio, TX that hires local, professional creatives to provide arts engagement in hospitals to adult patients and their care teams. Richard was lost at the time he met the founder by chance, and he now lives a wonderfully full life, which really comes across in this heartfelt and tear-jerking episode. Hearts Need Art's mission is to provide moments of joy, self-expression, and connection to people facing life-altering health challenges through arts engagement, advocacy, and innovation. Their vision is the universal accessibility of arts engagement to help everyone feel seen, heard, and loved while facing life-altering health challenges. Thank you for really cheering us up today Richard. Bravo!
