Gathering on the 21st anniversary of September 11th, our special guest, Dr. Pauline Boss, who coined the term “ambiguous loss,” reminds us that closure is a myth. Shanan Custer, with help from Rhiannon Fiskradatz, recounts being at the most magical place on earth that day. Sue Scott writes to Liz Cheney with a plea. Zippy Laske underscores that plea in song. Peg Guilfoyle, shares 2 encounters with strangers. Music guest, Rhiannon, brings us family, feminism and nature through her songs.
