Today’s episode features musical sisters Kjersten Dysthe and Kara Millerhagen, from the Minnesota musical group, Sister. Through their beautiful words, songs and stories, they have shared their gifts with one another and their audiences going back to childhood. Starting as a trio, with their sister Alisa, they evolved from young women into mothers who bonded in this shared human experience that inspired original music, poetry and shows.

After losing Alisa to a brief and tragic battle with cancer in 2018, these remaining two sisters were in a holding pattern with their remaining family, ultimately also losing their dad to cancer in late 2024. In the wake of these losses, this talented duo has found their new voices in helping others going through grief. Be sure to listen until the very end, as they sing a live version of their original song, “Windflower.”
