Love Like Layla: Turning Heartbreak into Hope
On this moving episode of Raise Nation Radio, host Dawn Lego sits down with Angie Lindberg, co-founder of the Layla Julien Foundation, to share the tender and powerful story behind an organization born from unimaginable heartbreak and built on unwavering hope.
Created in loving memory of her dear friend’s daughter, Layla Julien, who was taken far too soon by a rare, high-grade brain tumor, the foundation has become a beacon for awareness, research funding, and community unity. Angie opens up about the pain of a loss that shattered her friend’s world and deeply affected her own family, as her daughters were Layla’s closest friends.
The grief was paralyzing until they found purpose. What followed was a surge of overwhelming support from their community and a beautiful outpouring of action from the next generation of changemakers, who stepped in because they were raised with compassion, empathy, and heart.
This episode will pull at your heartstrings and illuminate the power of love, the importance of advocacy, and the incredible resilience of a community united to keep Layla’s courageous spirit alive.
