If you know ten women, you know one who has a story like mine. Holding Light: A Life Between Loss and Art is a powerful memoir that breaks the silence around the hidden grief woven through womanhood-pregnancy loss, infertility, premature birth, and the complex emotions that follow every path, whether chosen or not. At thirty-three weeks pregnant, a chance encounter in the woods sparks an unshakable knowing that something is wrong, setting the author on a journey through fear, trauma, and uncertainty where intuition-once silenced by life-reawakens as her guide. Through premonitions, spiritual encounters, and the fragile early days of motherhood, she learns to trust the inner voice that carries her through darkness, and helps her and Mark build a life against all odds-launching his now-renowned art career while she establishes herself as a trauma therapist. She tells the story behind the easel, the struggles that she and Mark faced for him to become a full-time artist and achieve award-winning recognition while starting a family. Told through the dual lens of clinician and patient, this deeply honest and hopeful story reveals the unseen labor, resilience, and quiet courage of women, reminding us that even in life's most shattering moments, we are not alone-and that grace, connection, and miracles are always within reach.
