Jonathan's Journal: From the Edge of Grief to a River of Healing
Manage episode 508238913 series 3648910
Some stories begin at the edge. What do you do when the unimaginable happens? For Rebecca Fielding, life changed forever when her younger brother Jonathan fell to his death at the majestic Moonscape Overlook in eastern Utah.
Out of that loss came Jonathan’s Journal—a simple notebook left at the site of his fall that grew into a movement of letters, art, and stories passed from stranger to stranger, heart to heart. What began as unbearable grief became a rising movement of connection and healing.
With raw honesty, Rebecca shares:
- The day Jonathan’s fall changed her world forever.
- How grief reshaped her as a sister and daughter.
- The creation and journey of Jonathan’s Journal.
- Why strangers can sometimes carry us through loss.
- How Jonathan’s love became enough to last a lifetime.

Hearing the stories of others helps us create a more meaningful connection to our own—because legacy isn’t just what we leave behind, it’s how we live right now.
