EPISODE 7: Linchpin of the Family ( Thanksgiving Episode )

In this Thanksgiving episode of My Life Is a Movie, I revisit the woman who held my entire family together — my grandmother. Before she passed, the holidays felt full: the food, the laughter, the aunties talking loud, the warmth in the room… everything felt connected.After she was gone, everything changed — quietly but permanently.I share what it felt like growing up around strong women, how Grandma kept the family steady, and how losing the linchpin affects everyone in ways you don’t notice until years later.This episode is part storytelling, part gratitude, and part healing. If you’ve ever lost the person who held your family together, this one is for you.#Family #Thanksgiving #Healing #Gratitude #BlackFamilies #Storytelling #MyLifeIsAMovie #PodcastLife #Legacy #GrandmaLove
