Travel In Peace: Episode 10 - Life After Child Loss | Four Years of Grief, Marriage & Starting Over Abroad

In the Season 1 finale, we reflect on the four years since losing our son Patrick to suicide — and the long, uneven path from survival to rebuilding a life we never could have imagined in the immediate aftermath of grief.We talk honestly about how loss reshaped our identities, our marriage, our priorities, and our understanding of home. Looking back year by year, we explore the realities of early grief, feeling stuck, navigating change, and eventually finding the courage to reinvent our lives.We also share how travel and living abroad became an unexpected part of our healing. Not because grief disappears in a new place, but because stepping outside familiar surroundings created space to question old identities and imagine a different way of living.Spain, in particular, became a place where we could begin again — slowly creating a life that could hold both profound loss and new possibility at the same time.To comment on episode or podcast, please subscribe to our substack at https://laurelosullivanjd.substack.com/s/travel-in-peace-a-podcastAnd of course, please follow/like/review this podcast wherever you listen to it!
