Probably one of the hardest podcast that I've ever had to publish because it deals with losing the ones you love.    After many hours of thinking about the pain one feels when you lose a loved one, I have realised that there are lessons embedded in the hurt - lessons that require your attention.    I hope you find joy and hope with this episode, I know Inga would have wanted you to love every minute of this yarn with Buck.    This episode is also dedicated to my late Mother, Rita. A believer in people, a believer in me and a believer in hope.     LISTEN TO THE FULL PODCAST ⬇️   Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3BlvC8U   Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Bn0WnV   Google Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3miX82t Anchor.fm: https://bit.ly/3jHJpkc
