Co-Founder
Tawana Spann is a powerful voice for families who have experienced unimaginable loss. A devoted mother, entrepreneur, advocate, author, speaker, and podcaster, her world changed forever on September 5, 2017, when her 14-year-old son Jabez Spann went missing. That moment stopped time. In the face of unbearable grief, Tawana chose not to let the pain define her, but to transform it into purpose.
Out of that pain, she founded the Jabez Spann Foundation and co-founder of Healing Hearts, a support group created for grieving mothers and families navigating trauma and loss. She has become a voice for the voiceless and a light for those walking through the darkest seasons of life, reminding them that they are not alone—and that healing, though hard, is possible.
