Could you still find joy in life if you had lost all the loved ones in your family to tragedy that included fire and murder? Lynne did and she is here to tell you how she is still Living Hope.

As an infant, Lynne Cockrum-Murphy survived a tragic house fire that claimed her father and two sisters and left her with severe burns over much of her body. She lived most of her life with a severely depressed and alcoholic mother, who shared with Lynne at five years old her thoughts of suicide. She lived through her stepfather being crushed to death in a logging accident and her mother being murdered in a bar-room robbery.

The only reason Lynne Cockrum-Murphy survived the fire is because her father carried her out first before running back in for her sisters, where they all perished.

Tragedy stuck three year old Lynne living in an idyllic family in Northern California.

Raised by a mother whose life was shattered by the tragedy, Lynne’s childhood was jolted again when her step-father died in a logging accident a few years later and culminates in the murder of her mother years later. That could have been the end of any hope of happiness, but it wasn’t. Living Hope follows life from those tragedies forward to today.

After all she has been through Lynne is radiantly happy and living a life of pure service to the world, don’t you think she can teach us a thing or two?

Lynne’s transcendent spirit knew there must be something better ahead.

Hear how Lynne endlessly searched for answers and with much time, trial and error, wise teachers, communal support, deep research and reading, and personal introspection….

She ultimately triumphed over her pain and suffering.

During Lynne Cockrum-Murphy’s interview on the Kathleen O’Keefe-Kanavos Show she shares how she found the steps to a joyful, deeply fulfilling life that includes a loving partner and a calling to help others. It’s those steps she interweaves in her book, Living Hope, as she tells her own remarkable story that takes her from surviving to thriving.

In Lynne’s case, instead of giving in to family dysfunction, she moved beyond the events of the past and writes about dealing with trauma, loss, abuse, family alcoholism and shows you there is a way to inner peace.

Listeners will discover how they can:

end the karma that has them on a hamster wheel of suffering.
escape the powerlessness that has them in its grip.
live through loss, poverty, depression and find the joy in their soul.
learn to trust –even after being betrayed and deceived.
make life-affirming decisions.
leave behind their “smallness” and rise into their greatness
