Show Notes

This week's guest, the Baroness Meyer has suffered more losses than most.  Her two sons were abducted by their father when very small and she fought for years, unsuccessfully, for their return.  And more recently, she's lost her husband of 25 years, Sir Christopher Meyer, the UK's one time Ambassador to Washington.  She opens up about how she's  handled grief and loss here.
