Today we are sharing a tribute to our friend and
fellow author, Amber Nicole who we recently lost on March
7th. Through this vulnerable and open conversation we honour
Amber and the impact she had on us and on anyone else who had the
privilege of knowing her. Amber was one of the authors
published in "Every Body Holds A Story" in 2022, and her chapter
was titled “I’m Not Still Here By Accident.” Amber was brilliant,
incredibly talented and a gift to all of our lives.
In this episode we dive into:
1) Our experience in losing a dear friend, the
emotions, the importance of our words, speaking in terms of dying
by suicide, what this experience has been like to witness, and how
we have been processing the loss of Amber and from attending her
Celebration of Life.
2) The trauma that our body holds onto, how it
continues to stack up and our body works to process, make sense of
and avoid our emotions. We explain how the conscious and the
subconscious mind works, how the subconscious mind works to protect
us from painful memories and experiences. We talk about different
modalities that can be used to support ourselves and our bodies as
we work to heal from trauma and challenges.
3) Both Sue and Marsha pay their own personal tributes in this
episode to Amber and address a difficult topic, which they know and
believe that Amber would love for them to not shy away from this
conversation. At the end of this episode, Sue shares a song that
Amber played and sang for her when Sue’s mom passed away in 2022.
This is a song by Snow Patrol called, “Chasing Cars.”
