Episode 8: Running the Long Race Together – Fatherhood and Family Through Adversity
In this companion episode to Karen Hohertz-Jacobs’ powerful story, her husband Matt Jacobs offers a father’s perspective on walking beside a family through life’s hardest chapters. From their daughter Kate’s early cancer diagnosis to the quiet strength it takes to raise a child with both love and limits, Matt reflects on what it means to lead from behind, to carry worry privately, and to keep showing up—mile after mile. A story about devotion, partnership, and the kind of strength that doesn’t need to shout.
