Love, Loss, and Legacy: Paula Hill’s Journey After Losing Her Son Austin

In this deeply moving episode of The Empowered Grief Journey, host Chris Mamone welcomes grief coach and bereaved mother Paula Hill. After the tragic loss of her son Austin in a motorcycle accident in 2022, Paula found herself grieving not only her child, but also the sudden disappearance of community and support.

Refusing to let grief isolate her, Paula chose to transform her pain into purpose — founding Austin’s Sunshine Foundation and a Zoom support group for bereaved parents, helping others navigate the heavy waves of loss.

Through vulnerability, advocacy, and unconditional love, Paula shares how she continues to honor Austin’s life by bringing light to others.
