In this heartfelt episode of Responding to Life, Josephine is joined by her dear friend Jess Koehler, an LA photographer turned close confidante and collaborator on many of Josephine's wellness events. Together, they open up about the personal impact of the devastating Palisades fire that occurred on January 7, 2025.

As two moms navigating the aftermath of this tragedy, they share the challenges of guiding their children through uncertainty and fear while striving to create a sense of stability and comfort for them. This conversation explores resilience in the face of unexpected loss, the profound acts of kindness from our communities, and the emotional journey of finding light even in the darkest moments. Jess shares her unique perspective on experiencing the LA fires, while Josephine reflects on how her family has been responding to life with courage and determination.

Through it all, this episode is a tribute to the power of community, the goodness of humanity, and the hope that comes from balancing motherhood, loss, and the unwavering strength of the human spirit.

Join us for an intimate and inspiring conversation about grief, gratitude, and finding resilience for ourselves and our families.
