Ever wondered how to redefine joy amidst profound loss? Join us in a moving conversation as we welcome Jessica Fein, the author of "Breathtaking: A Memoir of Family, Dreams, and Broken Genes." Jessica takes us through her family's heartrending yet inspiring journey, from adopting three children from Guatemala to facing the devastating diagnosis of her middle daughter with a rare mitochondrial disease. Jessica opens up about the concept of ambiguous grief—the sorrow of losing someone who is still physically present but fundamentally changed. Her insights offer a profound perspective on navigating life's tumultuous changes and finding moments of joy and resilience.
Jessica also opens up about the emotional weight of caregiving, recounting her struggles and the difficult realization of lost future moments with her daughter. The discussion wraps up with reflections on exposing children to grief, the healing power of storytelling, and how these experiences shape a healthier approach to future adversities. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of the complexities of grief, the strength found in family, and the importance of embracing every emotion along the journey.
