When children face death, grief, and loss, it’s as if their world shatters before they’ve had the chance to fully understand it. They cling to memories that slip through their fingers like sand, haunted by the absence of a hand they can no longer hold and a voice they can no longer hear.
Therefore, in these dark moments, when they are trying to navigate emotions far bigger than they are, we, as parents and caregivers, must remind them to keep their hearts open and remember the love they have within.
And so, one spirited soul is teaching little ones the universal language of love and connection, reminding them of the never-ending story of unconditional love .
Actress & Children’s Author, Rachel Montez Minor, joins our John Masiulionis in-studio (at the Third Wheel Podcast Studio in Los Angeles) on Episode #225 of PR From The Heart’s Children’s Books Spotlight Series (as part of the program’s 6-Year Anniversary Celebration) to share her spiritual journey, the unbreakable bond that she shares with her beloved husband, Rickey Minor (Emmy® Award-Winning Music Director, Producer, and Composer) and their daughter, Brodie Nakia, how that bond inspired the release of her new children’s books, See You on the Other Side and The Sun, The Moon, and The Stars (published by Crown Books for Young Readers/Random House Children’s Books), the importance of encouraging children to connect with their emotions and feelings, especially during times of change, the role of nature in helping children find their inner light, the permanence of love, the power of dreams and thoughts, plus much more. ✨
