In her role as the CEO of North Carolina’s largest homeless service agency, Roof Above, Liz Clasen-Kelly has often guided families looking for thier missing loved ones. Five years ago when Lucy Fields needed help finding her twin sister, Ellie, Liz was able to help the sisters reunite. Liz never imagined that Lucy would become the person she needed to help her find the right specialist for her son’s rare disease called PANS (pediatric acute-onset neuropsychiatric syndrome) Both Lucy’s son, Jacob, and Liz’s son, Isaac share the same rare autoimmune disease and in a moment of divine connection, Liz and Lucy became the angels in each other’s lives.

Welcome to What’s Your Whisper? With Kathy Izard. This is a place for people who love true feel-good stories about listening for a calling and exploring ideas about what it means to live a purpose-filled life. Author of five inspirational books for adults and children, Kathy loves learning about people who have heard that quiet whisper to do something that feels unexpected, uncomfortable and maybe inconvenient. Oftentimes we feel totally unqualified to do what it suggests, but at the same time, it is impossible not to listen because that whisper is so insistent. In 2007, Kathy first heard a whisper to quit her job to begin helping those experiencing homelessness and ended up raising $10 million to build homes for those experiencing chronic homelessness in Charlotte. Since that time, she has met hundreds of other people who have heard whispers big and small that all led to remarkable stories. These are all real people with true experiences filled with amazing grace. Listen in to hear not only what happened, but why people listened. Each episode will have you asking—what’s my whisper?
