    Creating Purpose through Grief w/ Jody Hudson

    Jody Hudson, founder of the Alex Hudson Lyme Foundation, shares about moving through grief after her daughter’s passing. She and In It Together co-host Patricia Cosulich discuss the therapeutic process of writing her book, My Promise to Alex, which was released earlier this year, and how she finds purpose in carrying out meaningful work for Lyme warriors. Grants and Philanthropy Director for California CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates), Jody Hudson is a fundraising professional with over 15 years of nonprofit leadership experience. She is also the CEO and founder of the Alex Hudson Lyme Foundation (AHLF), an organization that seeks to increase research efforts and patient support for Lyme disease and MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Disorder). Before joining California CASA in 2021, Hudson served as Vice President of Development and Communications for Girl Scouts of Central California South, and before that, led the Catholic Charities Diocese of Fresno as Director of Operations.

Jody fought for ten years to save her daughter, Alex, from a mysterious chronic illness. Unfortunately, Alex passed away in March of 2018.
