Awakening to Awareness

"Turbulence and Healing" with Robin Lunney


Listen Later

Robin Lunney was raised in a suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota by loving parents along with her two brothers. In 1977 at the age of 20, she began her career as a Flight Attendant. 37 years later she is still flying. She has been married to her husband John for 27 years. A beautiful son named Michael is born. The years pass and life is filled with love, laughter, and good health.
Then a dramatic turn of events. The most heartbreaking, devastating nightmare that can ever happen to a parent occurs. The sudden passing of their 23 year old son, Michael.
The solid and continuing support of family and friends has been instrumental in Robin's healing process. Last September (2013), Robin's friends invited her to join them on the ancient trail - Camino de Santiago in Spain. It is also called "The Way." Robin decided to walk the Camino in memory of Michael. Hope and some healing occurred along The Way. Something beautiful has happened. Robin has found the human connectedness for which we all long.
Remembering to 'play' wove its way through this program, despite tragic loss. Robin talks about "jump seat therapy," her life in the skies and more importantly, her purpose in life and what she sees her legacy as. She acknowledges the value in mentoring others, taking fear out of change, and how at 57 (or any age) you can still step off the 'safety step.'
Robin, in both serious and light-hearted stories, shares her reality and thoughts about healing slowly, turning a corner, and how she is rebuilding her life after devastating loss... her way and "The Way."
