Episode 145: Reese (Zahner) Maher (pen name: Cleo Childs) and herupcoming book "Moving With" that's based on her spoken word poetryalbum "Moving With" (May 2024)

ABOUT CLEO

Cleo released her spoken word poetry album "Moving With" in May 2024. Her book "Moving With" will be released later this year. These projects are the culmination of years of writing about the journey of grief she experienced after losing her mom to Alzheimer's when she was 28 years old. Her mother was an English major in college and her grandmother, who is also one of her editors, was an English teacher for 30 years, so she came by her grief-processing tool of writing naturally. With these projects, she hopes to show the path her grief took from having her mother, losing her mother, and the peace and acceptance she feels now. She also hopes to give an authentic and honest look at what her grief felt like so other people going through grief don't feel alone and feel community in their grief.

CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS

• Processing grief through poetry and writing.

• Stephen Colbert's story of tragedy.

• The meaning of loss and moving with (not past or beyond) grief.

• Connection through shared suffering.

• Perspective-giving moments in life.

• Easing the path for others through writing.

• The antidote to loneliness.

• Embracing imperfection.

• The freedom in authenticity.

The MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Cleo is, How do you process and utilize the suffering you've experienced in life to move with your grief and move forward in life?
