Description

Sarah Korenblit spent years working in palliative care. Through Sarah’s initial work as a social worker for people dependent on dialysis, she gained an understanding of the challenges faced by those with long-term and terminal illnesses. Eventually she used those skills to assist families with children who were mentally compromised or terminally ill.After the birth of her own special-needs child, Sarah was no longer able to work with this population. Ultimately, she opened her own therapy company, which allowed her to care for all her children, while helping other families in so many ways. One of Sarah’s overriding messages to those training in the medical field is to do what you can to remain compassionate but at the same time to do what it takes not to burn out.

I recently wrote a book called I Wish Someone Would Have Told Me for teens who lost parents. Since its release, I’ve been getting positive feedback from many adults who find it helpful too. Some find it useful because they were children when their parent died; some find it useful in understanding their neighbor or student who is growing up without a parent. All were unanimous that the book was filling an important need: the more I heard, the more it became clear that there is a great need for support for anyone who has suffered a loss. Still, when someone suggested hosting a podcast on this topic, I hesitated. Me? I should host a podcast? After much thought and a little research to see if those who had what to share were on board, I decided to accept the challenge. My goal is to bring you talks with all kinds of people who have all different kinds of stories to tell. Some of our guests lived through tragic losses, while others experienced more “typical” losses. Some guests are professionals and some are in the rabbinic field. But each has a unique story and a unique perspective. It is my hope that listening to these stories will fortify you with the support and connections you need and that they will help you gain understanding and clarity about your struggles and tools to help you become a better you.
