Some conversations ask to be felt more than figured out. This is one of them.

I’m joined by Beki Crowell, a soul artist and vibrational healer who has touched the sacred through surrender. Through her healing work with the Akashic Records, Reiki, Light Language, and her soul-led paintings, Beki guides others to reconnect with the Divine Self.

This conversation is about what happens when we encounter something so vast, so loving, so Divine…that it rearranges our cells. It's about unconditional love—the Divine kind. The kind that holds no requirements. The kind you remember, not learn.

And it’s about grief, not just as something we survive, but something that opens a portal.

So, wherever you are, join us.

Welcome to Come To The Brink. I’m Zoë Flowers.

On today’s show, we’re diving deep into the realities of caregiving, emotional abuse, and the complex grief that comes from losing loved ones in more ways than one. My guest today is the dynamic and compassionate Sherri Pullum, award-winning storyteller, artist, producer, and wellness coach, who courageously uses her art and advocacy to foster healing, self-awareness, and resilience.

Sherri knows intimately the profound challenges of caring for an ailing parent—her beloved mother experienced a debilitating stroke—and simultaneously navigating the painful breakdown of a nearly 30-year marriage marked by emotional abuse and alcoholism.

Welcome to Come To The Brink. I’m Zoë Flowers—and this is where we gather to talk about the kinds of grief that don’t fit neatly into a funeral or a diagnosis.

Today, I’m sitting down with someone I deeply respect. Monica Martinez is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with nearly two decades of experience holding space for survivors of trauma, interpersonal violence, and generational harm. She’s worked in shelters, research programs, and private practice—and through it all, she’s been a caregiver, a truth-teller, and a bridge between cultures, systems, and silence.

We’re talking about how grief shows up in Latinx communities. What it means to care for your aging parent while also tending to the wounds of a community. What trauma looks like—and what healing might look like, too.

This is a conversation about thresholds. And the people who hold them.
