In this special episode of Going Thru It, Jill and Holly connect across coasts on September 11th—two years since losing their brother Adam to colorectal cancer. It’s also their first time recording together since Jill became a mom to her son, Luca Adam, lovingly named in his honor.
From solo late-night feedings on one coast to quiet moments of reflection on the other, they share what it feels like to grieve apart, navigate new motherhood, and mark this anniversary without being in the same place as a family—something they had last year.
With honesty, heart, and their usual banter, Jill and Holly explore how distance, grief, and new beginnings intersect, and how love for their brother continues to anchor them no matter where they are.
