When Her Husband's Plane Crashed: Grief, Love & Healing with Jenny Brandemuehl
In this deeply moving episode, Dr. Lotte sits down with award-winning memoirist Jenny Brandemuehl, author of Forever Fly Free, to explore love, trauma, resilience, and the invisible threads that carry us through unimaginable loss.
Jenny shares the story behind her 2025 International Impact Book Award–winning memoir — beginning with her love story with Mark, their Silicon Valley life, and the devastating plane crash after takeoff from Scottsdale Airport, where he was pulled from the wreckage with life-threatening burns.
As Mark fought for his life in the Arizona Burn Center, Jenny became caregiver, advocate, and anchor for her family — navigating trauma, hope, miracles, and ultimately, profound loss.
In this conversation, you'll discover:
✦ How grief evolves over time
✦ How to hold joy and sorrow at the same time
✦ The power of healing in community and building a chosen family
✦ What it means to find love again after profound loss
✦ Whether life unfolds according to a larger script
✦ Why love is more than an emotion - it is energy
This episode is for anyone walking through grief, caregiving, trauma recovery, or profound life change - and for those who need a reminder that healing is possible.
