Love and grief are two sides of the same coin. In this episode, I share the story of my late husband, Matt—how our love, his cancer, and his passing transformed not only my relationship with him but my entire existence. You'll learn what my husband's death taught me about love, grief, and what it truly means to live. His passing wasn’t a loss because love never ends—it was a liberation. Discover how his cancer, our love, and my grief became an awakening, revealing that love is infinite, unbreakable, and the very essence of life itself. This episode explores how deep surrender, radical presence, and unconditional love in the face of tragedy create profound healing opportunities.
Grief isn’t something to survive; it’s an invitation to live more fully and love more fiercely. Eight years of widowhood have taught me that when grief is embraced with an open heart instead of fear, it becomes transformative. In this episode, you'll learn how my late husband's unwavering passion, my own spiritual awakening, and the lessons embedded in grief reshaped my understanding of life. If you’ve ever loved deeply, grieved profoundly, or feared the unknown, this conversation will open your heart and shift your perspective on what it truly means to live.
