44. Child Loss and Healing: A Mother’s Journey Around the World


Listen Later

Can you imagine packing your suitcase and your child’s ashes and setting off around the world for 26 months? That’s exactly what today’s guest, Becky Livingston, did after the death of her daughter Rachel. In this episode, Becky shares how traveling with Rachel’s ashes became a pathway to healing, eventually leading her to write her book The Suitcase & The Jar. If you are a bereaved mom searching for hope, meaning, or simply a reminder that you’re not alone, this conversation will give you perspective and encouragement for your own journey.

Here are a few of the key takeaways from my talk with Becky:

  • How travel can open up space for grief, healing, and self-discovery after child loss
  • The unique challenges and unexpected gifts of navigating grief away from home
  • Why rituals, memory-keeping, and honouring your child in meaningful ways matter
  • Encouragement for moms who feel stuck in grief and are curious about the healing power of new experiences
