In this deeply moving conversation, Belinda sits down with Kate and Scott, two young widowed parents who found unexpected love after unimaginable loss.

Kate lost her husband Rick suddenly in 2018 — the very next day, she found out she was pregnant. Scott lost his wife Kristy in 2022 after a five-year battle with cancer. While their experiences of grief were different — one sudden, one prolonged — both were thrust into solo parenting and the painful process of rebuilding lives they never imagined they’d be living.

What followed was a journey not just of survival, but of soul-deep growth, compassion, and connection.

With raw honesty, Kate and Scott share their personal stories of navigating grief, raising children through trauma, rediscovering identity, and learning to welcome love back into their lives. Now partners, parents to four girls, and traveling Australia in a caravan, they open up about the strength it took to move forward — and the love that continues to guide them.

This episode is a powerful reminder that grief and love can coexist. That healing is nonlinear. And that even in our darkest moments, there is light — if we allow it in.
