 In this episode, we catch up with Kathy Matusiak Costa, Executive Director of Compassionate Community Care, an organization dedicated to supporting, advocating for, and accompanying elderly, sick, disabled, and vulnerable individuals—especially those feeling isolated or facing end-of-life decisions.

Kathy shares insights on the power of presence, the urgent need for community connection, and how simple acts of being with others can be life-affirming and even lifesaving. She also speaks to the challenges posed by current MAID legislation in Canada, the gaps in resources available for vulnerable populations, and how local communities and individuals can step up to offer hope and compassionate care.

Join us for a thoughtful and inspiring conversation on collective responsibility, kindness, and creating a society where everyone knows they matter.
