Grief is a dear topic to me and I was delighted to introduce it in a innovative way with John Kammer, founder and CEO of Guardian Aingels.

John shares his personal journey through grief with us and the creation of an AI-powered platform designed to support individuals navigating their own grief.

After losing several close friends, including his best man, John realized the need for a tool that could provide support during the overwhelming moments between therapy sessions.

Guardian Aingels combines emotional intelligence with technology to create a reflective journaling experience that feels personal and responsive, helping users articulate their feelings and memories of lost loved ones.

John explains the importance of maintaining relationships with those we've lost, emphasizing that grief is not about closure but about integrating the memories and lessons into our lives.
