Adam Sawyer built a writing career from
the depths of heroin addiction writing about what helped him
through that, which was communing with nature.
Serendipitously, it was in nature where he met the love of his
life, Kara, with whom he bought a home off the grid in Washington
to base their lives together. While away on a business trip
less than two years ago, a fire took away virtually every single
thing in his life. His life partner, his home, and his
cherished cat, not to mention all his possessions. Adam's
grieving journey has been quite difficult, but once again he found
himself seeking open spaces to help him through his horrific
thoughts and emotions. Just recently Adam declared himself in
an emotional place to start mingling with people, and so he has
begun giving talks about the grieving process at libraries and
other places. We invited Adam to share some of his
realizations and processes with us on the podcast in a fascinating
hour-plus talk about what he's been through. As with most all
RATF episodes, we hear about some of Adam's favorite spots to eat,
too.
