Find Strength and Community after the death of a child. Welcome to 'The Lost Child Podcast,' a space where we navigate the difficult journey of losing a child, exploring what healing looks like, and sharing stories of resilience.

Join us as we share our experiences, offer support, and shed light on the unique challenges of this heartbreaking journey. Together, let's find strength, healing, and hope.

How A Tragic Car Accident Led To Helping Thousands? | S4 Ep 30
In this episode of The Lost Child Podcast, we sit down with Juli, the cofounder of Billy's Place, a peer-led grief support group for families based in Phoenix (West Valley). Billy's Place offers a safe space for those dealing with loss-whether from the death of a child, sibling, parent, grandparent, or friend. Through various group nights, including kids' nights, teen nights, and adult-only groups, Billy's Place helps families cope with grief in a community setting, where individuals can share their experiences and find comfort. Juli shares her personal journey of creating this vital nonprofit after the loss of her husband and son Billy's father, and how she brought the peer support group model to Arizona.
Billy's Place has grown over the years and now even provides grief training in schools to support children who have experienced loss. In this episode, Juli discusses the impact of their work, the power of community in healing, and how you can get involved.
If you are struggling with grief, loss, or the death of a loved one, this episode is a valuable resource. Learn about the incredible work of Billy's Place and the support they offer to families in need.

This level of despair does not permit me to imagine that everyone wouldn't also feel the relief of me being gone.
We are sorry that you feel this way. I understand that one simple comment back to you can't "change how you feel." Also, with as much love as I can convey through a TH-cam comment, please seek the help you can get.
@LostChildPodcast thanks for reaching out to me.
@@bongofury333 Thank you for responding. We hope that you get some value out of these podcasts. Though they are sad, they are intended to showcase hope, and resilience in life's difficult situations. I hope you have a great day today.
❤️❤️🙏🏽
It's been 19 months since we lost our only daughter in an accident, she was 3 1/2. I cried along with you as I listened to you talk and related to so much of what you are feeling. Prayers for you and your family as you continue on this grief journey.
Tragic and horrific Sincerest Condolences to you and your family. God Bless you all. 💔🙏🏼💔
Thank you for your support and taking the time to comment on this video. Yes, it is tragic and horrific. Thank you for your prayers. God Bless.
At least he did not kill somone else child with his nothing it's wrong attitude... He's probably a psihopat with no remorse...
We know that a video like this can generate an emotional response, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. We hope this video had a positive impact on your life. We also believe it is a good thing that no one else got hurt in this accident. Sorry you believe I am a psychopath. Hope you have a wonderful day.
This lady has the most beautiful, soothing voice!
She was great to talk with. She has an amazing story and we are glad that we could share that with you. Have a wonderful day!
❤❤ 💯
Thank you for wise words. I , like many , have suffered sudden shocking horrendous loss/grief ( not a child… but… other ) and …. i find Rucking ( carrying 10- 20 lb weight on back) while hiking in woods is therapeutic. I am a subscriber. Your sensitive channel on loss has helped many of us who are grieving, and i wanted to leave a comment to thank you. Plus , thanks for encouragement that physical activity/ exercise really truly helps . ❤️🩹🥹✨
Thank you for taking the time to comment. We appreciate you. Thank you for being a subscriber. We are glad that we have had a positive impact on your life. Hope you have a wonderful evening. 🙏
Imagine trading your personality to get rid of acne as a 16 year old. The doctors should remove the junk off the shelf! This momma trusted the doctor and he KNEW. ONE death out of 20 million patients is ONE TOO MANY. My heart goes out to y'all.
Thank you for taking the time to comment on the video. Thank you for expressing your concern with the drugs used in this story. Hope you have a wonderful day.
❤❤❤❤❤
🙏
Great job guys. Self care is so important. I love lifting weights at the gym
It is something that we are continuing to work on. With the NEW YEAR it has given us time to "recommit" to lifting weights. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Camille Sunny is so happy that her mommy is trying to take care of herself. 🌞 💓 we care also. 🙏🏼🕯💐 Peace and Love
Thank you. We hope Sunni is happy with what we are doing. God Bless. Hope you have a wonderful day.
💔 I'm so sorry 😭
Thank you. They are wonderful people and Megan seems like a really special girl.
I feel so bad. I live close to where this tragic accident happened. I feel so bad I’m so sorry
Thank you for taking the time to share your support with us. Tragic accidents happen all over the world. It's crazy that this one happened close to where you live. We hope this video had a positive impact on you. Have a wonderful week!
Horrific indeed. #LostChildPodcast 🙏🏼 #ShareHope 🌻
Thank you for your continued support. Yes, this was horrific.
😇😇😇😇😇
What lovely, inspiring, empathetic parents… I am so sorry for the loss of your precious and vibrant Megan. Thank you for sharing your daughter’s writings, what a beautiful soul she is 🫶🏻
They were wonderful people to interview and spend time with. They are amazing and the letters from Megan were special to hear. Thank you for taking the time to comment. We appreciate your support. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Thank you for this story - does Leann have a list of recommended books that she read the first year after her son’s passing?
I will check and see if she responds. Thank you for your question.
are you guys shadow band? I've been subscribed since the very beginning and watched nearly every episode as they were released, and one day i realized i hadn't seen a new video in awhile, honesty I thought you gave up on the youtube channel due to the timing of when I stopped seeing your new videos was when Camille started to express that she didn't know what to think about the podcast and the hard-to-hear stories and that it wasn't helping your own recovery.. (paraphrasing) (probably way off) @LostChildPodcast Last thing that made me reach out was i searched your podcast name in the youtube search bar and it never gave me the name in the recommended search names that drop down as you type....even with Lost Child Podcast spelled out completely. Good news is i have a lot of catching up to do! bad news is your channel should no doubt be bigger than it is!! Take care guys...
Thanks for taking the time to comment. I am unsure if we are shadow banned, and I am unsure on how to tell. I do know that we discuss and talk about sensitive topics. Not sure if somehow our channel has been flagged. I want to believe that, that isn't the case. We will keep moving forward with interviews and other content to help the community we have created. Thank you for giving your input. We are glad that you enjoy our content. Have a wonderful day.
I’m deeply sorry for your traumatic loss. 😢 Your world just falls apart from the day your child died. After my 35 year old son died unexpectedly.,my body suffered physically,I became so sensitive to loud sounds,if a car or motorcycle went past I would just grab my ears and my whole body would tremble.I ended up with a hernia in my stomach due to crying night and day for about 1 year. It’s such a traumatic event and your mind,body and emotions suffer. I pray that you keep healing in your journey. 🫂🫂🫶🏻💔💔
We are sorry for your loss. Thank you for your prayers. We pray for you also. God bless.
One thing I picked up on is that your son was suppose to be there at the park that day. Luckily, he wasn't because you could have lost 2 children that day.
Yes that has gone through our minds so much, we could have lost two children, but then again maybe if our son had been there, maybe he could have saved Megan or maybe he could have disturbing the event. But we can never know.
There are so many "what ifs" to think about.
God bless and look after Megan ❤. Much love and im very sorry 😢.
Thank you for your support. Hope you have a wonderful day.
All the parents who have lost their precious children, will be in my thoughts and prayers this christmas.❤
Thank you. For some, this will be their first Christmas without their child, and for others it will be there 40th Christmas without their child. Christmas time can be hard and special. Thank you for your prayers. God bless.
Wonderful parents. So sad for them.
They are wonderful. Thank you for taking the time to comment. Have a wonderful day.
I am so very sorry that you lost your baby girl. She was obviously loved so much. It isn't fair😢
She was very loved, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. God Bless.

@einilism so sorry for the loss of your little girl,,my love and prayers are with you at this sad time,
Sorry for your loss.
Thank you for your support.
The flat tire story reminded me of the pool draining incident, Blake and Camille. As Gilda Radner said, "It's always something." These logistical, mechanical, maintenance problems sure don't help.
Yes, it is similar to the pool drain incident. Sometime when things "go wrong," they really go wrong.
I know families who mention their baby or child they lost about 40 years, and for some reason I like when they do that. It's very life affirming. I know it's not about me of course. But I would not expect people to forget about their children or siblings.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
I think this guest is probably a good friend to her friends.
She does seem like that kind of person.
It's so unsettling to not know where your loved one is. (You may know they are at work or away at college or on vacation if they are adults.)
Yes, it can be.
Giving you a hug.
Thank you for your hug.
I am tearing up hearing about the jet owner helping out the family during this crisis.
There are wonderful people who do wonderful things with their time, talents and assets.
I have a question are you Jehovah Witnesses
Thank you for taking the time to comment your question. No we are not Jehovah's Witnesses. Have a blessed day.
This is very very hard to share. Thank you. ❤❤
Yes it is. Thank you for taking the time to comment.
Thank you Both for sharing the research articles. I did yoga and runnung beforehand, and after i returned to running after 1.5 yr and yoga daily now, a new activity i took up is free wall climbing. I can attest that Being super active has accelerated my grief. Love snd Light to you both❤❤. Mostly, being super tired also rests your mind and the continuous overthinking or trauma.
We are sorry for your loss and glad that you have found some different physical activities to help you through your grief journey.
Leanne...Thank you. ❤❤❤ Love and Light to you. You were the first book I read when I lost my mum. You kept me going. Xxx
She dropped off her book and we are going to read it.
Its tough knowing a family member died alone at home.
Sorry if that has happened to you, yes it would be a tough thing.
I’m blessed because of both Cam and Blake ‘s testimony. I have been praying for you guys, and the other families. Somehow I would like to be of help. 🙏 praying about how and I believe our lord will show me. Mercy and Grace come down upon you and this fabulous podcast. Strength 😢😇❤️🩹😇
Thank you for your prayers. Hopefully you can be of some help. God bless.
Lots of love to you both, thanks for your shares 💟 Asami's Mommy
Thank you for your support and taking the time to comment. We hope that in our sharing we are able to help in your life. Hope you have a great week.
My 16 year old son passed away after having wisdom teeth extracted. He contracted sepsis and died a painful death. He left earth in 2006. I will never get over it and I grieve for him everyday. Share your love and memories of Sunni. Keep her memory alive. God's strength will help you. God Bless your family.
We are sorry. Thank you four sharing some of your story with us. Hope you have a wonderful week and God bless.
