48. Giving Sunshine with Jason Clawson Letters To My Younger Self
-
- Personal Journals
Life was good for Jason Clawson: his family was happy and they were building their dream home when they received the heartbreaking news his wife had stage 4 cancer. Nine months after the diagnosis, his wife Valerie passed away. Jason was left picking up the pieces and not knowing how to survive being a single parent and coping with everyones grief. Jason shares about how he survived and had a support team of family and friends to help him in his grief. Jason quit his job as a mental health therapist and spent a summer making fun memories with his 2 boys. In order to give his sons some purpose, they started looking for yellow things to give to others. They started a lemonade stand that they donated items to families that had lost someone they loved. This lemonade stand morphed into what is now called Giving sunshine. Giving Sunshine is a Gift Box to help those suffering from cancer, the loss of a loved one or the struggles of life. It is therapy in a box that promotes healing. Jason has used his therapy background and this experience of losing his wife to help people navigate such a horrific time in their lives.
