Service Means Everything – with guest Sandra Yancey

Counselor Mandy Eppley speaks with founder of eWomen Network Sandra Yancey about three significant losses in her life, the first being the death of her father on her 5th birthday, and how she used her faith and her desire to learn as tools for healing. They speak about the importance of perspective in our losses – seeing these events as things that are happening “for” me and not “to” me. This shifts us from being a victim to being empowered in our grief journey. They also talk about Step 6 from the Model of Heart-Centered Grief, Service, and how it is one of the primary keys to healing. Sandra shares this quote from her mother “Give without remembering, take without forgetting.” This episode is full of transparent and inspiring moments that can help you in finding hope!
