In the first guest episode of Voices of Resiliency, hosts Kristopher Pace and Michael Pellegrino welcome Lori Alhadeff—founder of Make Our Schools Safe, nationally recognized school safety advocate, and mother of Alyssa Alhadeff, who was tragically killed during the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

Lori shares the deeply personal journey that transformed unimaginable grief into a lifelong mission to protect students, educators, and communities across the country. Through courage, advocacy, and unwavering determination, she has become a leading voice in school safety reform, helping shape legislation and drive meaningful change in the wake of tragedy.

This conversation explores resilience in its purest form—choosing purpose over despair, action over fear, and hope in the face of profound loss. Lori's story is a powerful reminder that while we cannot always choose the challenges we face, we can choose how we respond to them—and in doing so, create lasting change for generations to come.

This is Voices of Resiliency—where stories become strength.
