Dangerous Creatives - A Photography and Creative Business Podcast 196. Fabi’s Love Story - Fabi Powell and Kristin Sweeting
On this episode of the Dangerous Creatives Podcast, Kristin chats with her previous 2x Bride Fabi Powell about her unique story of finding exceptional love twice in her life, the true value of photographs, and what it is like to persevere after devastating heartbreak and loss. Fabi’s unique story is an inspiring one, and her perspective on life, love, and loss (and photography) is definitely one to listen to.
Fabi Powell lost her Army Ranger husband, Josh, to Synovial Sarcoma cancer at 29 years old. She started the Josh Powell Foundation in his honor to help encourage newly diagnosed patients and fulfill the wishes of those running out of time. At 33, she began a three-year journey through IVF, hoping to have her late husband’s baby, but despite her efforts, the dream was not realized. However, in the midst of her grief, Fabi found the second love of her life. They got married in May and are now expecting a baby boy in October. She shares her story to give others hope—reminding them that joy does coexist alongside unimaginable pain, and that it can, and will, exist for them too. She believes there is still beauty to be found in life after earth-shattering loss; that there is extraordinary love on the other side of debilitating fear; and that impossible dreams can become reality with enough faith and resilience. “Life is hard, but it’s too short to let the hard outweigh the beauty. And when we learn that, we must pass it on.
