Join LTGW’s Creator and Host Nanci Adair and season 3 cohost Marianna Casagranda in a reflective conversation, revisiting the recent interview with Nanci's sister, Meg Weston—an artist in recovery.
The Intimate Quality of Lifelong Bonds:
Marianna's Observation: Marianna notes the interview's relaxed, intimate quality, attributing it to the lifelong relationship between Nanci and Meg.
Capturing Essence in Art: Delving into the power of photographing or drawing someone well-known, allowing artists to capture the essence and spirit beyond mere physical features.
A Family Tragedy and Its Impact:
Nanci's Nephew David: The interview touches on the recent two-year anniversary of David's accidental overdose, a tragedy deeply affecting the entire family.
The Unnatural Loss: Marianna reflects on the unnatural and tragic nature of parents losing children, especially in unexpected and violent ways.
Meg's Love for Volcanoes:
Past Life Connections: Exploring Marianna's perspective on Meg's lifelong love for volcanoes potentially reflecting past life memories or connections on a soul level.
Nanci's Volcanic Encounter: Nanci shares a personal experience visiting an active volcano in Hawaii, narrowly escaping harm from the intense heat.
Parallel Symbolism in Photography:
Lava Flows and Addiction: Marianna explores Meg's online photography, specifically the images of lava flows, drawing parallels to the hidden combustion of addiction beneath the surface.
Pushing Boundaries and Risk-Taking: Discussing the themes of pushing boundaries and taking risks in nature and recovery, highlighting the evolution with age and long-term recovery.
Recovery as a Refining Process:
Temperance in Recovery: Marianna reflects on recovery as a tempering process, akin to a blacksmith removing the "dross" or unnecessary parts of oneself.
Allowing Feelings in Recovery: The importance of allowing feelings to have a natural cycle in recovery rather than suppressing them.
Spiritual Experiences and Love:
Loving through Decline: Marianna shares a powerful spiritual experience of coming to love, but not always like, her parents through their decline and deaths.
Encouragement for Listeners: Nanci and Marianna invite listeners to follow their work and subscribe to the podcast for more compelling stories of addiction and recovery.
Closing Thoughts:
Gratitude and Connection: A closing expression of gratitude for the shared stories, encouraging listeners to stay connected and engaged with the ongoing journey of recovery.
