And if you're in South Africa, you heard Gabby explaining that there would be a physical Cape Town workshop on authentic resilience on the 4th of March and another one in Jo 'Burg on the 7th of May.
Imagine facing the unimaginable: losing your child just before a milestone birthday. That's the heart-wrenching reality Gabi Lowe faced when her daughter Jenna passed away from pulmonary hypertension just shy of her 21st birthday. In this deeply moving episode of 'Tribe Sober', host Janet Gourand sits down with Gabi to discuss her journey through immense grief and how she found the strength to rebuild her life with purpose and resilience.
Gabi's story is not just one of sorrow but also of incredible courage. She shares how she transitioned from feeling like a helpless bystander to becoming a 'Momcologist', a term she uses to describe her fierce determination to fight for her daughter's life. Despite the tragic outcome, Gabi has channeled her pain into advocacy, writing a heartfelt book titled 'Get Me to 21' and launching The Jenna Lowe Trust to raise awareness about pulmonary hypertension.
Throughout their conversation, Gabi emphasizes the importance of seeking help and surrounding oneself with a supportive community. She introduces the concept of 'authentic resilience', which involves accepting reality, finding a new sense of purpose, and building strong, meaningful relationships. Her insights offer a roadmap for anyone navigating their own dark times, showing that it's possible to find light even in the darkest moments. This episode is a testament to the human spirit's capacity for healing and growth.
Whether you're dealing with loss, looking for ways to build resilience, or simply in need of some inspiration, Gabi's story will touch your heart and remind you of the power of love and community.
