Carrie

Prepare yourself for an emotional journey as we welcome our guest, Carrie, who takes us on a trip through her life, from her roots in Brainerd, Minnesota to her current residence in Rogers, Minnesota. We traverse through her personal story of growth, love, and loss in a conversation that is as raw as it is cathartic. Carrie, a lover of hiking, boating, and her husband Eric, opens up about her passion for patient care, her close-knit family ties, and her future plans of becoming an RN. 

Our conversation ventures through various landscapes, from the vibrancy of Austin's music scene to the challenges of moving and growing up in a non-traditional family. It's not all heavy though, as we find solace in shared experiences and lighten the mood with stories of Tinder dates during the pandemic and a hilarious take on lactose intolerance. Carrie's resilience shines through as she shares her experience navigating through the heartbreaking moments leading up to her mother's death due to lung cancer.

In the final part of our conversation, we dive deep into the impact of loss and grieving. We reflect on the profound effect of caring for a sick parent and the emotional choices that come with it. Our conversation takes a turn as we discuss the sudden death of a mother due to severe alcoholism and the challenges faced due to COVID restrictions. Lastly, Carrie and I share the therapeutic power of our podcast discussions, which serve as a testament to the healing power of sharing our stories. Join us in this intimate, emotional exploration of life, love, and loss.
