Description

Patients of Dr. Jane Harrell often say that she is the most dedicated physician they have ever known. In the modern health system where ten minutes can be all the time a doctor can spare, “Dr. Jane” created a medical practice for paying patients as well as a free clinic for the homeless where time and attention are standard practice. When tragedy struck the Harrell family five years ago, it seemed doubly unfair to imagine that a doctor who gave so much could lose her oldest child, and namesake, to an inoperable brain tumor, DIPG. But the Harrell family vowed to carry on the remarkable hope of their 17-year old Jane to “change the world”  by creating Jane’s Fund to do good and “Shine Like Jane.”

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?
