Beyond Thoughts and Prayers: Showing Up in Times of Crisis with Jordan Arogeti

What does it really mean to show up when someone’s world falls apart?

In this episode, Emily sits down with Jordan Arogeti, Co-Founder of SupportNow, to talk about rethinking how we care for people in their hardest moments. Born from witnessing others' losses and feeling powerless and confused about how to show up, Jordan’s mission is to move us beyond "thoughts and prayers" to real, practical help—meals, rides, errands, and presence. Jordan shares the deeply personal experiences that led her to reimagine how we care for each other.

Listen as Emily and Jordan talk grief, community, motherhood, and the power of building systems rooted in compassion.
