Finding Light in the Dark: Kimberly Williams-Paisley on Alzheimer’s, Advocacy, and Healing

Actress, author, and advocate Kimberly Williams-Paisley's heart for giving back is as big as her impact on the world. You may know Kimberly from iconic roles in Father of the Bride, According to Jim, and The Christmas Chronicles, but her true legacy shines through her tireless philanthropic work. As co-founder of The Store with her husband Brad Paisley, Kimberly has worked to provide comprehensive solutions to hunger and poverty in Middle Tennessee, offering support to families in need.

Kimberly sits down with us to share the profound journey of caring for her mother, Linda, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease at just 62. Her book "Where the Light Gets In" captures the emotional story of their family’s experience, and the transformative power of love, forgiveness, and resilience. Kimberly also opens up about her own health crisis, where she faced nerve damage that temporarily took her voice, but through surgery and determination, she found her strength again—now even deadlifting 115 pounds. This episode is an inspiring testament to the power of healing, advocacy, and finding light even in the darkest times.
