Changing Life And Moving To Rome: Emily Mais
Manage episode 364738710 series 2939697
Emily Mais is a writer and an author who, after losing her mother to cancer, decided to reevaluate her life and change the things that didn't make her happy. Like so many other people her age, she was at a point in life with a steady long-term boyfriend, a good job, and a nice apartment in Toronto, but ultimately wasn't happy. It took losing her mother to help her realise that life is short, and you only get one chance at things. So, with no real plan or agenda, she left her home in Canada, changed careers, and moved to Rome in Italy where she now lives.
In this podcast, Emily talks to Colm about what those final months with her mother were like, and how it inspired her to become a writer focusing on love, loss and grief. The three things she says we all experience but never plan for.
