Beyond the Loss: Life and Identity After a Child Dies
Over time, the conversations we choose to have begin to reflect what matters most.
If you’ve been part of this podcast, you’ve heard me speak about human development, systems thinking, and the ways we make meaning of our lives and work. That work continues—and remains at the core of my coaching and professional practice.
What has changed is the space where I am choosing to have a different kind of conversation.
After the death of my son, Michael, I felt called to create a more personal place—one that speaks directly to the experience of loss, and to the questions that emerge when life no longer looks the way it once did.
That space is now Beyond the Loss.
This podcast is for parents who have lost a child, and for those who support them. It is not about fixing grief or finding closure, but about understanding how we continue to live, to make meaning, and to become—after loss.
If you are looking for my current podcast,
you will now find me there.
I invite you to join me on Beyond the Loss.
You are welcome.

Episode 100: Connecting to Our Essence and Creating Meaning from Within
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The quest to find meaning is central to the human experience, and often in today’s world, this is measured by external metrics of success. But in an ever-changing world, holding onto what defines us externally, only creates difficulty and struggle within. This is why today’s guest, Elle Price, believes that by tuning into your heart and the divine, it is possible to create a meaningful and prosperous life from within. With a 20-year background in business, including being a CEO of a multi-million-dollar company, Elle blends her modern wisdom with ancient healing methodologies for a transformation of mind, body, and spirit. After she exceeded her expectations, Elle found herself on the other side, asking the profound question, “Is this all?” It wasn’t that she was unhappy, but rather that she desired something more. In this episode, after Elle talks about her alternative methodologies learning journey, we dive into exploring a superpower we all possess — Manifestation. We all can attract abundance in any form into our lives, but it requires us to do work. This work departs from our conventional understanding of effort and toil and instead calls for us to connect with our hearts. We also delve into somatic healing, which is often overlooked. Our discussion also touches on how little effort it takes to make things happen once you use your manifestation powers and finding a resonant course of healing, rather than following someone else’s. Be sure to tune in today!
