After a Son’s Death, Finding Meaning in Life

After her 15-year-old son Joshua was tragically struck by a car and died in 2002, Nancy Rothstein discovered a deep inner strength that led her to an affirming view of her life and Joshua’s ever-inspiring and growing presence in it. Nancy is the author of Rising in the Mourning: Ways to Celebrate Life (2022), in which she describes her journey through grief to this elevated place, sharing perspective and teaching us that our relationships with those we’ve lost never end, but can deepen and guide us forward. She speaks with Exit Strategy Host Stephanie Garry in this episode of universal wisdom and inspiration.
