Bonus: Heather's Life Story: Trauma and Love

After her adopted daughter died in a car accident when she was 18, her mom discovered over 200 letters that she had written to God and herself between the ages of 14 & her death. To help herself grieve, the mom read each letter - one at a time - and wrote a letter back to her daughter, telling her all the things she would have said if she had known that she wouldn’t have another chance. The subject matter is intense and hard, but the conversations are authentic and raw - exposing the challenges & giving insights into both growing up and parenting. We strongly suggest that you listen to this podcast with your child or spouse or friend and relish the conversations that you can have together, while you are both still living.
