Hope Comes To Visit

Podcast

Welcome to Hope Comes to Visit, the podcast where honest conversations, real-life stories, and unexpected light come together to remind us we’re never alone. In each episode, I sit down with people who’ve walked through extreme challenges, change, recovery, and redemption—and come out the other side with wisdom, resilience, and hope to share. I truly believe everyone has a story of hope that can inspire someone else – there is strength to be found in the experiences of those around us. Whether you’re navigating your own turning point or simply need a reminder that becoming who you’re meant to be is possible, these stories are here to meet you where you are. This is your invitation to slow down, listen in, and let hope visit you, too.

  • “I was doing what everybody told me to do… he can make eye contact and have a conversation—he can’t be autistic.” Today, certified Master Life Coach and writer Karen Kossow gets real about the three-year journey to her son’s diagnosis—and what it means to parent neurodivergent kids while discovering your own neurodivergence. As part of the sandwich generation, Karen is supporting her children, noticing patterns in older family members, and learning herself—often all at once.

  • What happens when a woman’s pain is dismissed at one of the most vulnerable moments of her life? For Jenny Hoffman, it nearly cost her everything. Just hours after giving birth to her daughter, Jenny hemorrhaged internally while medical staff brushed off her repeated cries for help. “I kept saying it really hurt,” she remembers, as Motrin was offered while she was losing over two liters of blood. In this raw and powerful conversation, Jenny and I uncover the haunting parallels in our own birth experiences — moments of crisis where women’s instincts were ignored until it was almost too late.

  • For Brian Franklin, loss came in waves — the suicide of a childhood friend, a colon cancer scare, the discovery of a benign brain tumor, his wife’s breast cancer diagnosis, and the sudden heart attack of his closest confidant. At times, the weight of it all was nearly unbearable. Yet Brian’s story isn’t defined by tragedy. It’s defined by his remarkable capacity to reinvent.

  • The road through addiction and recovery is rarely straight — and for Jamie Felton, it’s been marked by both unimaginable loss and profound resilience. By age 24, Jamie had accumulated three DUIs and found herself walking home from a blackout at 3:30 AM. That was the breaking point that led her to seek help — and on November 7, 2006, she began a journey that has kept her sober for nearly 19 years.
