The holidays can be joyful, but for many, they’re also a painful reminder of who’s no longer here. This Saturday, we’re holding space for that grief.

Join us for a heartfelt conversation with Tanika West-Moore, affectionately known as “The Counseling Chef.” With over 21 years in the mental health field and a passion for healing through food and storytelling, Tanika shares her journey of losing her mother and how she’s turned her pain into purpose.

 Her new book, “When Mommy is Gone,” is more than just a story—it’s a soft landing for those carrying silent grief, especially during this season. As a therapist, life coach, doula, and founder of two heartfelt ventures named after her late mother, Tanika’s work reminds us that healing comes in many forms—sometimes in a conversation, sometimes in a home-cooked meal.

 This episode is for anyone grieving a mother, anyone feeling the heaviness of the season, or anyone needing to hear, "You’re not alone. Live on 89.9 KMOJ at 8AM CST
