What happens after a parent loses a child? In this deeply moving conversation, Sandy Richards shares the unimaginable journey of losing her son, Tyler, and the grief that followed. From panic attacks in grocery store aisles to the quiet moments where memories suddenly take your breath away, Sandy speaks honestly about what child loss really looks like. But this story is also about something more powerful than grief. It’s about the friends who showed up when she needed them most, a community that refused to let her grieve alone, and the unexpected way Sandy began to process her pain—by writing. What started as personal healing eventually became her published book A Far Cry…From Home, written through the eyes of Tyler. Together, Jaime and Sandy talk about the reality of trauma reminders, sibling grief, community support, and how purpose can grow from the deepest pain. This episode is a reminder that while grief never disappears, love, connection, and legacy can carry us forward. If you or someone you love is navigating loss, this conversation will remind you that you are not alone.
