At Least We’ll Always Have Spring: What Remains Is Love With Taylor Balfour

Season 3 Episode 8

Some conversations hold both shadow and light—and remind us that love never truly leaves.

In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with author, poet, and creative Taylor Balfour, whose debut poetry collection At Least We’ll Always Have Spring was written in honor of her sister. Through poetry, Taylor has transformed grief into remembrance, pain into connection, and loss into legacy.

Together, we explore Taylor’s journey to publishing her book, the profound bond she shared with her sister, and the realities of mental health struggles and addiction—spoken about with honesty, compassion, and a desire to remove stigma. This conversation does not shy away from the darker corners of grief, yet it is equally filled with warmth, wisdom, and moments of light-hearted joy.

We reflect on the circle of life, the symbolism of seasons, and how even the hardest winters can still give way to spring. Taylor speaks with wisdom beyond her years, sharing how tragedy has unexpectedly deepened her connection to others and reinforced her belief in love as what ultimately remains.

With the holidays approaching—a season that can heighten both joy and grief—this episode offers a gentle reminder that no one is alone in their pain, and that meaning can be found even in heartbreak.

This is a conversation about love that endures, stories that matter, and the courage it takes to turn loss into something that can hold others.
