Listener Leticia Upton on finding miracles and humor in life

2020 was a hard year for most people as it marked the start of the worldwide coronavirus pandemic, but for listener Leticia Upton the difficulties of 2020 marked it as a year of death and sorrow. In that year, she lost her husband Thomas unexpectedly early in life to Lung Cancer caused by Radon gas exposure. Now, as a widow, she raises their twin boys with resilient poise and determination to find the miracles and humor in life. She joins this episode of the Relentlessly Resilient podcast to share her heartfelt journey of seeking hope amid loss and sorrow. 

Even though we live in challenging times, we can become Relentlessly Resilient as we lean on and learn from one another’s experiences. Hosts Jennie Taylor and Michelle Scharf are no strangers to overcoming adversity; Michelle lost her husband to cancer, while Jennie’s husband, Major Brent Taylor, was killed in the service of our country. Their stories bond them together, and now listeners can join them weekly as they visit with others enduring challenges and who teach us how they are exercising resiliency, finding value in their grief, and purpose in moving forward.
