What is the Wind Phone — and why do people visit it to speak the words they never got to say? In this episode of Sherapy with Sheri Todd, I share my emotional visit to the Joshua Tree Wind Phone with my brother and sister-in-law: dialing my mom’s old number, finding language for grief, and discovering how a simple rotary phone in the desert can become a bridge to love and memory.
You’ll also hear the story behind the Joshua Tree Wind Phone (created in memory of Ruby and Hart Campbell), how Wind Phones have grown into a global grief movement, and a special Email: The Musical segment featuring my song “Whispers in the Wind (The Wind Phone Song).”

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
