When Nicole’s husband was diagnosed with ALS, she was six months pregnant.

In this episode, we sit together one year after his passing and talk about what life has actually looked like since.

Nicole shares moments from their journey—from the early days of diagnosis to the Honor Walk at the hospital, the decisions around organ donation, and the ways she continues to carry her husband’s presence forward for their children.

We talk about grief, identity after caregiving, motherhood inside loss, and the quiet ways love continues.

This is an honest conversation about what comes after everything changes.
