She found her calling after America faced mass tragedy on September 11, 2001.

After that day, she felt forced to answer a deeper call to serve her community, especially for those

members in greater need. She also is co-host of the impactful podcast near death with Nikki Boyer, on which she

shares more about her grief work. This conversation with Chaplain Peggy is deeply appreciated.

This is also the very first interview we have conducted with an advocate who does not identify

as a victim herself,

but who has brought much healing and support to the victim community.

And it won't be the last.

The Broken Cycle Media team is so very grateful for Peggy's work with victims and other

patients alike, as well as this candid conversation about the intricacies

of her experiences as a chaplain in the most populous county in the United States.

I am chaplain Peggy. I grew up in Minnesota.

I was surrounded by water on a lake.

Water's a big part of how I care for myself.
