In this inspiring episode, we get the tea from Laonis Quinn, MSN, RN, AE-C, Founder and Executive Director of the Breathe Anthony J. Chapman Asthma Foundation, to explore how unimaginable grief sparked a powerful mission of advocacy, healing, and purpose. 💙

After losing her oldest son Tony to a fatal asthma attack, Laonis turned heartbreak into hope—championing asthma awareness, community education, and policy change. From Detroit to Capitol Hill, her voice now helps save lives.

🎙️ Tune in as we talk about:

• Turning grief into a powerful purpose

• Starting a non-profit from the heart

• The impact of community advocacy and education

• Asthma’s hidden toll on families—and how to raise awareness during Asthma Awareness Month

• Tips for those wanting to give back through mission-driven work

With over 25 years as a Critical Care Nurse, a Certified Asthma Educator, and a recent recipient of the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award, Laonis is proof that purpose can rise from pain—and change lives!
