In this heartfelt episode of 'Pause to Go', host Bree Luck diverges from her planned discussion on menopausal hormone therapy to commemorate an episode released a year ago featuring her grandmother, Anne Hodnett, whom Bree recalls as a significant role model. They discuss poignant experiences such as dealing with the loss of loved ones and surviving challenging times, highlighting the value of heartfelt conversations and self-awareness. Bree also invites Ronda Rich, Anne Hodnett's dear friend and bestselling author of “St. Simons Island: A Stella Bankwell Mystery”, to reminisce about Anne and the impact she had made on those around her.
