“Gabby Petito’s Parents: What It’s Really Like to Grieve Her Life”

from A Place of Yes | A Grief Podcast · host Heather Straughter

Gabby Petito’s name is known around the world—but behind the headlines is a family still living with unimaginable grief. In this powerful conversation, Heather sits down with Gabby’s mother and stepmother to talk about what life has been like without her: the milestones she’s missed, the memories they hold close, and the heartbreak that lingers on birthdays, holidays, and especially Mother’s Day. They speak openly about their pain, their regrets, and what they want the world to understand about Gabby—not as a case, but as a daughter, a sister, and a light that was stolen too soon. The Gabby Petito Foundation: https://gabbypetitofoundation.org The mission of the foundation is to address the needs of organizations that support locating missing persons and to provide aid to organizations that assist victims of domestic violence situations, through education, awareness, & prevention strategies.
