What if the legacy isn’t left by the parents, but by the child?

In this emotional and inspiring episode, publisher and award-winning author Lisa M. Umina speaks with Clarita Sierra about her late son, Alex. Alex’s fight to rebuild his life away from drugs became more than a struggle, it became a gift. His words, along with the voices of family and friends, tell a powerful story of resilience, love, and the realities of addiction.

Clarita, a therapist with a background in psychology and family therapy, shares how writing her book after Alex’s passing became a path to healing, not just for herself, but for others who may be facing similar struggles. Together, she and Lisa explore how storytelling can transform grief into hope and open the door to understanding addiction in a deeper, more compassionate way.
