I sit down with Chris Ryan, a father who has turned his profound grief into a mission of healing and connection. After the tragic loss of his son, Sean, to fentanyl poisoning, Chris's journey has taken him through unimaginable pain, spiritual exploration, and, ultimately, a powerful transformation.

Chris shares his unique bond with Sean, their love for music, and the struggles Sean faced with substance use. The conversation delves into Chris's evolving spiritual beliefs, including a life-changing medium reading with Fara Gibson that provided undeniable evidence of Sean's continued presence.

Chris also discusses his involvement with *Helping Parents Heal* and the creation of the book *Helping Fathers Heal: Grief, Hope, and Our Search for Connection*, which brings together the stories of 25 fathers who, like Chris, have faced the indescribable pain of losing a child. This episode offers hope, inspiration, and practical advice for anyone navigating the difficult path of grief.

Key Topics Discussed:

- The profound impact of losing a child and the unique grief journey for fathers.
- How Chris and Sean bonded over music, even through difficult times.
- Sean’s struggle with substance use and the tragic consequences of fentanyl poisoning.
- The transformative power of spiritual exploration and medium readings.
- The creation of the book *Helping Fathers Heal* and its role in supporting grieving fathers.
- Advice for fathers and families coping with loss and seeking healing.
