    Show notes

    What does it mean to lose your mother at only 20 years old? Singer and songwriter Airick G faced that reality when his mother died of scleroderma after years of illness. Forced to cope with grief at such a young age, Airick turned to music and art as a way to process the pain and share what he couldn’t always say out loud.

His story is a raw and honest look at what it means to carry grief early in life — and how art can transform even the deepest wounds into something beautiful.
