[REVISIT] Choose Joy - feat. Kate Doerge

[REVISIT] Choose Joy - feat. Kate Doerge

May is Neurofibromatosis (NF) Awareness Month. In honor of that, we are re-releasing a deeply moving episode that focuses on a truly incredible foundation—and the powerful story behind it.


Leslie sits down with Kate Doerge, founder of Penny’s Flight Foundation. Kate shares the powerful story of her daughter, Penny, who passed away in November 2022 from NF—the most common genetic disorder in children, and one that still has no cure.


In the wake of unimaginable loss, Kate, her husband Chad, and their community turned grief into action. They founded Penny’s Flight Foundation, a growing national movement dedicated to raising awareness and funding for NF research.


In this heartfelt conversation, Kate reflects on Penny’s joyful spirit, the mission of the foundation, and the boundless energy fueling efforts to find a cure. Her story is one of resilience, love, and the power of community.


Tune in and be inspired by the legacy of Penny and the incredible work being done in her name.
