What Comes After Writing, Loss, and Healing with Author Sara Escobar

In this episode of the Eleven Intuitions Podcast, Melissa sits down with author Sara Escobar for an honest, thoughtful conversation about writing as a lifeline, navigating loss, and finding meaning after life changes you forever.

Sara shares the stories behind her poetry collections Old Flames and Wildflowers and Ashes & Stardust: What Comes After, reflecting on heartbreak, grief, love, memory, and the quiet ways we learn to carry what we’ve lost. Together, they explore how words can hold what feels impossible to say, how creativity becomes a form of healing, and what it looks like to keep moving forward without pretending everything is “fixed.”

This episode isn’t about rushing through pain or tying life up neatly. It’s about truth, tenderness, and the space we give ourselves to feel, reflect, and keep writing our way through whatever comes next.

If you’ve ever turned to words to survive, understand yourself, or make sense of change, this conversation will resonate deeply.
