In this special episode, I’m joined by Reverend Chris Girata, Head Rector of Saint Michael and All Angels, to help our community process the unimaginable loss following the flash floods in Kerrville. With so many of our own Highland Park families affected—and six of our HPISD children tragically gone—we are all feeling heartbroken, helpless, and searching for ways to support one another. Reverend Girata led a prayer service Sunday night that many described as comforting, hopeful, and exactly what their hearts needed. His words offer the kind of light and perspective that so many of us are longing for right now.

Whether you’re grieving, trying to help someone who is, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the weight of this tragedy, this conversation is for you. Reverend Girata shares thoughtful ways we can show support, how to talk to our kids, and how faith and community can carry us through the darkest of times. If you're unsure of what to say or do, or just need a moment of peace in the storm, I hope you'll tune in. This episode is a small offering of comfort, connection, and clarity in a moment when we need it most.
