Thursday morning on Goddard College Community Radio: A Vermont mother on resilience in the face of her son's death, and why electric cars are becoming easier to buy and to charge in Vermont.

9:00 - 10:00 am
When your life is shattered in an instant, can conscious and deliberate gratitude and connection to nature help you find joy and hope again? One woman's lessons can be important for all of us.
Of Grief, Garlic and Gratitude follows the first thirty months after Sam Francoeur's death from an accidental opiate (prescription) overdose. His mother, Kris Francoeur, shares her journey from the first crushing days to her eventually being able to find light, joy, and hope again through the practices of conscious and deliberate gratitude, unconditional acceptance of others, and making strong connections to the natural world.
