Vogelzang. Today’s episode is brought to you by Acorns. Acorns makes it

We have an extraordinary guest and an equally remarkable
story that will inspire, move, and deeply touch your heart this holiday season.
Bambi Lynn, author of The Journey of Josephine: The Doll that Mended a Broken
Heart, joins us to share a narrative that’s as unique as it is universal—a story
about resilience, healing, and the incredible power of love and faith.
Picture this: a little girl unwrapping a handmade doll on Christmas morning, a
simple yet thoughtful gift from her mother. But for Bambi, that
doll—Josephine—became so much more than just a toy. Josephine became a
silent companion, a keeper of secrets, and an unwavering source of comfort
through some of life’s darkest moments.
Abuse, trauma, teenage pregnancy, and loss—Josephine was there through it
all, standing in when people failed, offering strength when none could be found.
Bambi’s story is one of survival and triumph. It’s a testament to the unorthodox
ways we find hope and the surprising places where we discover strength. Today,
she’ll take us on her journey, sharing how this doll—and the faith she held onto
like a lifeline—helped her navigate through unimaginable pain to become the
resilient, inspiring woman she is today.
Prepare yourself for an emotional and eye-opening conversation that highlights
the power of small things—a doll, a moment of faith, and the decision to
persevere—to create monumental change in our lives. Stay with us as we dive
into this unforgettable story with Bambi Lynn.
And now, it’s my pleasure to introduce Bambi Lynn.
