If you're going through a situation like this in any way, shape or form, even though it feels counterproductive, get enough sleep. It's tasty. It will fill you up... You have to take care of your body so that you can think through the situations and decisions that you have to make with a clear mind. It's very hard. Be very nice to yourself, take care of yourself, and know that it's no matter what, it's not your fault.
What if you could find a way to laugh through the darkest times of your life? In this episode of Hopestream, Brenda Zane sits down with Jess Kupferman, CEO of She Podcasts, who has done just that. Jess shares her poignant yet unexpectedly humorous journey through the tragic loss of her daughter to a heroin overdose. This conversation is a raw and heartfelt exploration of how humor can serve as a coping mechanism in the face of unimaginable pain.
Jess's unique perspective sheds light on the often-overlooked intersections of substance misuse, mental health struggles, and family dynamics. You'll hear about her 'kind of kidnapping' her daughter from rehab, the challenges posed by inadequate recovery centers, and the incredible support she found in an all-female podcasting community. Despite the heavy topics, Jess's story is peppered with moments of laughter and resilience, offering a fresh take on dealing with trauma.
Whether you're navigating similar challenges or seeking inspiration, this episode provides a rare blend of honesty, humor, and hope.
