Having tough conversations with those you love and the power of resilience with Dr. Kimberly Harms

In this heartfelt mini-episode of The Afterlight Podcast with Lauren Grace, Dr. Kimberly Harms shares thoughtful insights on navigating the conversations we often avoid—but truly need to have.

Lauren and Kim explore:

  • Why we cannot change the past—and how shedding old hurts allows us to move forward without becoming victims of our history
  • The importance of preparing for death and creating a positive legacy no matter what stage of life you're in
  • How open, honest conversations about end-of-life wishes can bring peace, clarity, and connection
  • Teaching children to live fully while you're here, so they can flourish when you're gone

This episode is a powerful reminder that letting go of what we cannot change, and facing life’s realities with love and openness, helps us—and those we care about—find freedom and peace.
