24. Fentanyl, Loss and Healing (w/ Katrina & Kristi from DK805 podcast)

On this episode of Chasing Joy, Spencer, Bryan, and Wayne sit down with Katrina and Kristi, hosts of the DK805 podcast — two mothers whose friendship was forged through unimaginable loss. Both women lost their sons to fentanyl, and together they’ve built a space for healing, truth-telling, and community.

They share how their connection began on a Facebook support thread, how grief reshaped their lives, and why speaking openly about addiction, stigma, and the realities families face has become their purpose. Through stories of courtrooms, care packages, spiritual signs, grandchildren, boundaries, nature, prayer, and showing up for one another, Katrina and Kristi remind us that grief and joy can coexist… and that hurt people can also become healers.

This conversation is raw, compassionate, and full of the kind of honesty that helps people feel less alone.
