ABOUT THIS EPISODE:

Welcome to the first episode of the Not My Story podcast! I’m so glad you’re here. To begin the podcast, I invited my favorite person in the world and husband of 15 years—Ben Westfall—to join me in telling some of our stories that haven’t gone as planned. Consider this a little introduction to me and to the podcast. In this episode, you get to know Ben, a little about our history, and the loss that changed us.
