Holding the Light Trailer: Our Story

Welcome to a podcast created for grieving families of child loss, and the people who support us.  A place to share our stories of hope and healing.

Our opening trailer will shed some light on who we are, and how a seemingly crazy idea, turned into a special bonding and healing experience between this mother and her (now) 22-year-old son. Then tune into each episode, as we interview guests who share their very personal stories. You will be inspired. And, hopefully, feel less alone.

Find a quiet space to listen, stay to the end of this introduction, and be treated to the full version of our podcast theme song As Long as You Love (Scarlet Wings) written and sung by Cindy Bullens, in memory of her 11-year-old daughter, Jessie.  

Together, we are Holding the Light. Let's get started.
