Belonging Beyond Breath with Dr Sandra JTM Evers

What if belonging does not end when someone stops breathing? Dr. Sandra Evers joins Jean, Jillian, and Joanne for a deeply human conversation shaped by her years living among a Malagasy community in Madagascar. Together they explore grief, ritual, loneliness, curiosity, cultural difference, and a way of belonging that includes both the breathing and those who remain present after death. It is a conversation about connection, the people who continue to live within us, and what other cultures might teach us about being less alone.
