S1/ E3: The Light We Expect vs The Light We Get

In Episode 3 of Lights On, Amanda and Erin explore one of the most tender parts of the TBI caregiving journey: the people you expected to show up… and the ones who actually did. They talk openly about the grief of realizing some relationships shift or disappear during crisis, and how that grief piles onto an already unbearable moment. But woven through this episode is light — the unexpected helpers, the quiet kindnesses, the small and enormous ways people stepped in and illuminated the path forward. This is a conversation about letting go, holding on, and finding joy in the places you never imagined it would appear.
