Episode Synopsis

Shelly Calcagno is an author, blogger, writer, and speaker. In addition to these important hats, Shelly is a follower of Jesus, wife, mom, and grandma!
Shelly offers a hope-filled message anywhere she goes (including her podcast, A Space for Grace) and speaks to varied audiences about faith, grief, family, legacy, and creativity. I love how she says, “All those things combined make up my heart.”
In our conversation, we talk tenderly about grief and loss as we dive into her book, The Longest Goodbye. In her book, Shelly navigates the delicate balance of the beautiful and hard aspects of life and loss through her mother’s diagnosis of Alzheimer's.
When the episode arrives this Friday, bring your Kleenex with you. Shelly shares her heart behind the book, the journey she walked with her family over the years, and the importance of keeping her eyes on Jesus.
