Kelly Cervantes Interview

In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with author, advocate, and podcast host Kelly Cervantes to discuss her acclaimed memoir The Luckiest: A Memoir of Love, Loss, Motherhood, and the Pursuit of Self. Kelly opens her heart about the journey through her daughter Adelaide's illness and passing, the complexities of caregiving, and what it means to rediscover identity and purpose in the aftermath of unimaginable loss. With honesty, grace, and resilience, she shares how gratitude, community, and storytelling helped her reclaim her life. Together, Matt and Kelly explore love that endures beyond loss, the messy beauty of grief, and how writing can become a path toward healing.
