Aisling Fitzgibbon and her search for meaning and purpose following the death of her mother
Episode 25
Aisling Fitzgibbon and her mother Martha were inseparable. As well as mother and daughter, they were best friends and soul mates.
Following a few years of depression in her early twenties, Aisling went on a journey of finding meaning and purpose in her life, accompanied every step of the way by her beloved mother Martha.
When Martha suddenly became critically ill, all of Aisling’s spiritual learnings were put to the test and she had to dig deep to be able to come to terms with her mother’s impending death.
Aisling takes us through that journey and talks about how she accompanied her mother in her dying process and how finding meaning in her mother’s death helped her to cope with the enormous grief she experienced. Listen to Aisling and be inspired!
‘Fairytale’ – a song by Richie Ros, which Martha listened to as she was dying.
