In this deeply moving episode, we journey into the life and legacy of Judy Garland. As Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, she traveled a road of uncertainty and danger, yet held fast to her core self. Joined by Judy Garland Museum’s Founding Director, John Kelsch, and Executive Director, Janie Heitz, we explore Garland’s life and story of resilience, heartbreak, and timeless courage that continues to touch hearts across generations. From the ruby slipper’s theft to her role as a beacon for those searching for belonging, Judy’s legacy serves as a poignant reminder of hope, home, and the strength to remain true, especially in challenging times.
Today, Judy’s voice echoes louder than ever. Join us as we remember why her legacy matters—and why her story, more than a century later, is one we can hold onto.
