Jodi O'Donnell-Ames lost her 36-year-old husband, Kevin O’Donnell, to ALS in 2001. She now takes readers inside her own deeply emotional journey through caregiving, loss, grief and those hardest, ubiquitous lessons of adult life. She has devoted herself to giving back to others touched by a life-limiting diagnosis or other challenging transitions in life. She is the founder of Hope Loves Company, the only nonprofit dedicated to supporting the children and grandchildren of people living with ALS. She is also a motivational TEDX speaker, life coach and host of the podcast, Gratitude to Latitude: Stories of Hope and Resilience, through which she celebrates the people and the stories that have fueled her purpose and passion for personal growth and healing.
