In this heartfelt and deeply moving podcast episode, host Laura Cathcart Robbins and guest Nikki Mark discuss Nikki's personal journey of grief and healing following the sudden passing of her son, Tommy, at the age of 12. Nikki, the author of 'Tommy's Field: Love, Loss, and the Goal of a Lifetime', shares how her son's spirit inspired a community to come together to build 'Tommy's Field', a soccer field that serves as a place of play and remembrance. Throughout the conversation, Nikki reflects on the mystical experiences and signs she received after Tommy's passing, the community's overwhelming support, and the meaningful impact of channeling grief into creating something beautiful and inclusive. The conversation also explores themes of spirituality, love, and the enduring connection between a mother and her son. The episode highlights Nikki's mission to honor her son's life through the construction of more community fields and the donation of book proceeds to the TM23 Foundation.
