Finding Bravery At The Intersection Of Yes And No Amidst Loss With Bryn Freedman

Sorry to start a show so heavy, but this is one of the most real, raw, and brave interviews I have held in almost 200 episodes of Brave Women at Work.As I will explain in today’s show, I met Bryn Freedman, my guest today, in a most interesting way. On an airplane. What would unfold after that has shocked and awed me. I would like to thank Bryn for being on the show today, especially after losing her husband, Steve Freedman, just a few short weeks ago.Bryn has had an amazing career in investigative news, making documentaries, being a TED curator and coach, and simply helping make the world a better place with her non-profit, Voices4Freedom.I learned so much from Bryn and our conversation, and I could feel my emotions well up in my heart several times during the show. It was a mixture of sadness and grief for Bryn who lost Steve so unexpectedly, and gratitude for the time we spent together during our discussion.During our conversation, Bryn and I talked about:More of the juicy details behind the story of how Bryn and I met on a plane to Portugal.The story of Steve’s recent passing.The background story behind Bryn’s amazing investigative news, and documentary film/TV career.Bryn’s relationship with yes, no, and now, how am I feeling today.How Bryn’s relationship with her mom and how it has improved after her passing.Bryn’s thoughts on burnout.And more.
