  • Grief, Love, and Moving Forward: Jason Rosenthal on Life After Loss

    Grief, Love, and Moving Forward: Jason Rosenthal on Life After Loss
    2026/04/28
    In this deeply moving episode of Lighting the Path, Jerry Fenter sits down with Jason Rosenthal—attorney turned therapist, author, and widower of acclaimed writer Amy Krouse Rosenthal. Just ten days before her death from ovarian cancer in 2017, Amy published a now-viral New York Times essay titled "You May Want to Marry My Husband." In it, she lovingly encouraged Jason to find happiness again after she was gone. What followed was an extraordinary public response—and a profoundly personal journey through grief. Jason reflects on what it was like to process loss while suddenly becoming a public figure. He shares how his grief was both deeply familiar and uniquely exposed, and how Amy's final act became a guiding light—not just for him, but for countless others navigating loss. In this conversation, Jason explores: The emotional impact of Amy's final essay and how he responded to it What it means to "live fully" in the face of mortality The complexities of grieving in the public eye How writing his own book became a tool for healing and helping others The unexpected ripple effect of his TED Talk and the gratitude it inspired His transition from a career in law to becoming a therapist focused on supporting others Jason also offers thoughtful, practical wisdom for those walking through grief—reminding us that while loss is universal, each journey through it is deeply personal. This episode is a powerful reflection on love, legacy, and the courage to keep living fully—even after profound loss.

  • Grief Support in Your Pocket: How Technology Provides Comfort with Help Texts

    Grief Support in Your Pocket: How Technology Provides Comfort with Help Texts
    2026/04/14

    In this episode of Lighting the Path, host Jerry Fenter talks with Melissa Lunardini, Chief Clinical Officer at Help Texts, about transforming grief support through technology.

    Help Texts is a pioneering service that sends thoughtful, personalized messages to people experiencing grief and loss — and just as importantly, to their friends and family who want to offer meaningful support but may not know how. Melissa explains the clinical philosophy behind Help Texts, the models that guide message design, and how the service helps normalize ongoing grief through timely, compassionate communication.

    She shares powerful testimonials from participants whose healing journeys were eased by receiving these messages, and discusses what demographic trends reveal — including that the largest user groups are adults aged 40–64 and 65+, and that men find the service particularly supportive.

    Together, Jerry and Melissa explore how grief can be met with empathy, connection, and innovative digital pathways that remind us all that healing begins with compassionate words.

  • How to Support Grieving Children and Teens

    How to Support Grieving Children and Teens
    2026/03/31
    Children experience grief differently from adults—yet their feelings are just as deep and real. In this episode of Lighting the Path, Melissa Lunardini, Chief Clinical Officer for Help Texts and nationally recognized expert in children's grief, explores how we can better support children and teens who are grieving. Drawing on her 20 years of experience, Melissa dispels common myths about how children understand and express loss. She shares practical ways adults can offer genuine help without unintentionally causing harm—highlighting specific words and phrases to avoid when comforting younger children. Melissa also offers two key insights for helping grieving teens, whose needs often differ from younger children and adults alike. While grief touches all ages, she reminds us that the way people need to grieve can differ significantly based on age, development, and emotional capacity. The episode concludes with a helpful tool Melissa recommends for anyone—parents, teachers, clinicians, or clergy—who walks alongside children and teens in grief. Key Discussion Points: Common misconceptions about how children grieve Why language matters: what not to say to grieving children Two practical ways to support grieving teens Understanding developmental differences in the grieving process A practical tool to help children and teens process loss Connect with Harbor Hospice & Beacon Hospice: Follow Harbor Hospice on Facebook.
