About this week’s episode

You might remember Amber as my guest from episode number 27 where we spoke about the way she dealt with the loss of her husband, Tim, when she was just 32 years old. Since then, a lot has happened in Amber's life and today we are going to talk about the accidental trauma she had to deal with just over 6 months ago. She survived a fall from a zipline, but she will tell us more about this in her own words. What inspired me to ask Amber to be my guest again is the way she is dealing with trauma and grief. She is a beacon of light and a living model of finding joy in life and admitting its hardship. I admire her and her ability to pick herself off, dust herself off and start all over again – as in Nat King Cole’s song.

About this week’s guest

Amber Jackson is a single mom of four (one with special needs) and a divorce survivor, cancer widow, fun-seeker, and lover of all things having to do with kitchen dance parties and cheesecake. She is a certified public speaker and loves speaking to women and teens about finding joy in the unexpected. Life’s challenges haven’t stopped her from living life to the fullest. Amber is a self-proclaimed life enthusiast and is determined to see everything that life has to offer, including the bad, as something she can learn from. She has a huge appreciation for life and all the things that make one happy. She believes that all lights twinkle, that there can be magic laced in music and there is strength in even the smallest of breaths.
