Remembering Mom

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!


What if grief could be your greatest teacher? Join me as I honor
my mom's memory and explore the unexpected gifts that grief has
bestowed upon my life. In a heartfelt episode, I read a special
segment from my book, The Places When There Are Spaces, where I
reflect on the chapter "The Gifts in Grief." Through vivid
recollections of the autumn of 2018, I share how my mother's
passion for dance continues to inspire me, and ponder the moments
we might have shared together. From imagining her first tap class
to talking about my new apartment in New York City, her presence
is felt in every step I take.

As I brace for the seventh anniversary of her passing, I find
solace in the strength and resilience I've uncovered through
loss. I encourage listeners who have experienced similar journeys
to seek the hidden lessons and growth that can emerge from grief.
With immense gratitude, I celebrate the deepened bond with my dad
and the everlasting love of a mother that remains a guiding force
in my life. Join me as I light her mosaic candle and raise a
glass to her enduring presence, cherishing each moment and
embracing her magic that continues to illuminate my path.
