It was our privilege to connect with Jon and feature him in Episode 43 of The Heart of Hospice podcast which published August 15, 2019. You can hear about Jon’s work and the services available through Wisecaregiving.org by clicking here.
Jon has so much wisdom to share. Through workshops, retreats, presentations, and private consultations, wisecaregiving.org offers guidance for caregivers and those facing life-limiting illness that enables them to find meaning in illness.
