We’re back with another listener AMA, and this one might be our most heartfelt yet. I sit down with my wife, Alyson Charles Storey, and our conversation weaves through themes of grief, forgiveness, and family legacy as I share the story of honoring my father’s life and final wishes. From the surreal experience of his memorial to an unexpected pilgrimage up Snowmass Mountain to spread his ashes, I open up about the lessons loss has taught me: how relationships shift, why priorities sharpen, and what it really means to let go with grace.
Along the way, Alyson brings her shamanic perspective to the conversation, offering insight on how to hold both the pain and the beauty of these moments without bypassing the deeper truths they carry.
Thank you to everyone who submitted a question—your curiosity and courage continue to shape these conversations. We’re honored to walk beside you in both the challenges and the celebrations of being fully alive. Visit beherefarm.com/fall to join Alyson and other amazing presenters at the Fall Into Here event, September 27-28 in the Texas Hill Country.
