In this episode, James Beard award-winning author and speaker Elissa Altman joins writer, speaker and celebrated artist Elizabeth Jameson as they discuss the role of sustenance in their own lives. It is safe to say, this bedrock of support has been stripped from both of them in unique ways throughout their lives. Elizabeth, through the disease progression of MS that has her now living as a quadriplegic. And Elissa, through a contentious and traumatic relationship with her mother's mental illness. The guests discuss what sustains us (and not just food) during life challenges such as family trauma and disability, reflecting on what it takes to transform lack into abundance and bitterness into generosity of spirit.
