Moving on with courage after life-changing disaster | Part 2
About this episode
Joanna Sustento-Bacsa and Howie talk about what still needs to be learned about one of the worst calamities of our time. An infant's mother, she says the joy of motherhood was mixed with guilt about bringing life into this kind of world.
"I was sad because climate change took away my family, and it was discouraging me to have my own. But I wasn't to blame for this mess. It was unfair," she shares. "So when my husband and I decided to have a child, it was an important decision because a child means hope. A child symbolizes hope in the future."
