Kathryn Henry spent a decade beside her wife through a grueling cancer battle, walking away from her corporate career to be fully present for it. After her wife passed, small, inexplicable things like dimes, turning up in impossible places, became something she couldn't write off as coincidence. That became the title of her memoir, A Dime to Say I Love You.

They explore:

• What happened on a rain-soaked mountain trail in Japan that turned a moment of "what did I get myself into" into the clarity to finish writing the book
• The difference between knowing something intellectually and knowing it in every cell of your body, and why only one of those actually changes how you live
• How childhood trauma decades earlier shaped the spiritual practice she now leans on to process both grief and reinvention

Kathryn's story isn't about grief resolving into peace on a tidy timeline. It's about learning to recognize the signs that were there all along, and letting them pull you forward instead of trying to explain them away.
