Finding Strength After the Unimaginable Loss of Her Son: Interview with Elizabeth Abraham

Join your hosts Brooke and Stacie on "Transforming and Thriving" as they share a deeply moving conversation with Elizabeth Abraham. In this episode, Elizabeth bravely opens up about the devastating loss of her son in his 30s to a tragedy that occurred unexpectedly during a hike. She shares the raw shock of that middle-of-the-night news and the long, challenging journey to finding her "new normal." Her story is one of resilience and hope, as she describes how staying busy with meaningful pursuits, including helping others and honoring her son's memory, has become a vital part of her healing process.

Neelia Heydt, Transforming and Thriving’s newest cohost, shares a special connection with Elizabeth, having known her since she was 14. Elizabeth’s Italian heritage shines through in her passion for cooking, and she's known for generously sharing comforting meals with friends, family, and neighbors. A devoted mother to her surviving son in Texas and daughter in San Clemente, and a loving grandmother, Liz's capacity for giving is evident in everything she does, from her culinary creations to writing Christmas cards for servicemen overseas.

Tune in to hear Elizabeth’s powerful story of strength and the importance of finding purpose in the face of unimaginable loss.
