iHeartRadio: Kimberly Handy-Jones & Kevin O’Connor

Whitney’s Women is a space dedicated to shining a light on incredible women who are making a difference. Airing as part of The Weekly Show on iHeartRadio, the segment celebrates purpose-driven leaders using their voices and platforms to create meaningful change in their communities and beyond.

In this week’s episode, Whitney sits down with Kimberly Handy-Jones, a mother whose journey through heartbreak has become a beacon of healing and hope. After facing the unimaginable loss of her son, Kim discovered purpose in helping others navigate their own paths through grief. Through her foundation, she provides headstones and support for families who have lost loved ones to violence and cannot afford a proper memorial.

Whitney was also joined by Kevin O’Connor, longtime partner of The Whitney Reynolds Show and founder of KO Law Firm, who has stood beside Kim throughout her journey—both personally and professionally. Together, they discuss the power of compassion, community, and turning pain into purpose. Kevin shares how his work intersects with Kim’s mission and how advocacy and empathy can walk hand in hand when it comes to creating lasting impact.

Kim’s story is a powerful testament to resilience, faith, and the transformative impact of using one’s story for good—even in life’s hardest moments.
