A Mother's Day Tribute to the People Who Carried Me

from The Life Shift | Conversations About Life Before and After · host Matt Gilhooly

In this special solo episode of The Life Shift Podcast, I step away from interviews to reflect on the three people who shaped me most—my mother, my grandmother, and my father. Mother’s Day has always felt complicated, layered with grief, gratitude, and unexpected resilience. I share how losing my mom at eight changed everything, how my grandmother stepped in and became my safe place, and how my father quietly carried the weight of it all while helping me find my way forward. This episode is a tribute to them—and to you, the listener, who may also feel the complex emotions that days like this bring.
