Death is no stranger to podcast host and author, Martika Whylly. Experiencing her mother's suicide at the tender age of 15, her grandma's death two years later, followed by her uncle dying in a car accident shortly after, her father passing from AIDS and a cousin who hung herself, Martika found her life work being defined not so much by desire but by design. "Suffering a loss can make you feel like your whole world has collapsed, yet even in the deepest despair, there’s always hope," is a motto that drives Martika to share her insights and wisdom with others.
