Today’s episode is a story of courage, healing, and choosing joy after heartbreak. Abigail Carter, a writer and artist, lost her husband in the 9/11 attacks and spent years navigating grief. But when the noise of life grew too loud, she listened to a quiet voice inside that said: Go. Abby left behind the familiar and moved to a small château in the peaceful countryside of southwest France. There, surrounded by sunflowers and slow, soulful living, she began again. She’s now created a retreat space for women over 50 to reconnect with themselves, their creativity, and their joy. This conversation is not just about moving to France. It’s about moving forward. And finding beauty in beginning again. Abby talks about embracing a slower pace of life, building community, and what it means to truly start over. Whether you’re dreaming of travel, seeking healing, or simply in need of inspiration, Abby’s story will speak to your soul.
