In today’s touching episode of Well and Grace, host Regina Bartlett sits down with Denise Clanin, a wife, mother, and new author whose journey of grief and healing is woven into the pages of her debut novel, Among the Stars. After working as an accountant, Denise stepped into full-time motherhood when her son was born. In the quiet moments of naptime, she revisited a creative writing project from college—one that would become a heartfelt tribute to her late brother, who passed away more than five years ago from a chronic medical condition. Denise shares how writing helped her navigate her grief, how motherhood has reshaped her dreams, and how faith sustains her as she builds a life filled with purpose, creativity, and love.
