In this episode, I'm joined by the incredibly inspiring Scarlett Lewis, founder of the Choose Love Movement. Scarlett is the mother of Jesse, who was tragically killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in 2012. When I first heard her speak about forgiving the shooter, I was deeply moved and I knew we had to have this conversation on the podcast. This episode explores how we navigate unimaginable shock and grief, and the profound choice we all have when faced with tragedy: to live from fear and anger, or to choose love. Scarlett shares how she found her way through the darkest moment of her life and how that journey became the foundation for a global movement teaching children and communities how to respond to challenges with courage, compassion, and connection. If you've ever experienced loss, supported someone through heartbreak, or wondered how healing and forgiveness are even possible after tragedy, this conversation will touch your heart and leave you feeling deeply inspired. We talk about: Moving through shock and grief, and finding your way back to real moments of joy How the Choose Love Movement is shaping the next generation of children Forgiveness as a practice that can give you your power back (without bypassing the pain) How to create meaning after loss, and let love become something you live and pass on Where to find Scarlett: Website: chooselovemovement.org Instagram: @chooselovemovement 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?
