Liz left her husband Brian and went off to spend a month in Paris with her daughter. The dream Paris trip.
As is often the case, things went in the opposite direction from what she expected. Not in a bad way, though, in fact, things went in a very good way.
Her time in Paris brought up thoughts and feelings around the grief of losing both parents. Feelings she thought (hoped) had been resolved.
Not so. Very much not so.
This week, we want to talk to you about Liz’s Paris trip. About finding yourself alone with yourself and having time to face up to feelings you’ve been trying to push down.
Thank you so much for lending us your ear. And thank you for finding us and for staying around. I hope this helps you in some small way ❤️
My heart beats with yours.
Kia Kaha.

We stayed in an Airbnb in Paris, but nine times out of ten, Brian and I house-sit.
It has saved us approximately $30k in accommodation around Europe.
