Jessie’s Light: Turning Grief into a Safe Haven | Lynne's Story

Some stories are born from unimaginable loss—and go on to save lives. In this episode of the FoundHer Series Podcast, Carrie sits down with Lynne Rosychuk to honour the life of her daughter Jessie and the legacy that followed.

Lynne shares the story of losing her daughter to domestic violence and how that grief led to the creation of Jessie’s House, a 9,200 square-foot safe haven that has supported more than 800 women and 1,000 children. This conversation is about love, community, and the belief that everyone deserves to be safe, supported, and seen.

Conversation highlights:

- Honouring Jesse’s life and legacy

- Domestic violence awareness and prevention

- Building Jesse’s House as a trauma-informed home

This episode is for anyone who believes personal stories can change systems and that love can build something lasting.
