In this episode of B+, Krista Gregg talks with journalist and podcaster Erika Mahoney about losing her father, Kevin Mahoney, in the 2021 Boulder King Soopers mass shooting. Erika shares her personal experience from that day, her unique perspective as both a reporter and a grieving daughter, and how she’s navigating life after such a senseless tragedy.
They discuss the lasting impact of grief, the challenges and ethics of journalism when covering mass shootings, and the urgent need for mental health awareness, community support, and prevention. Erika also shares how she’s honoring her father’s legacy through small acts of kindness — like returning shopping carts and picking up litter — and how her podcast Senseless is helping others process loss and trauma.
This is a powerful conversation about acceptance, resilience, and finding hope after unimaginable loss.
