On this week’s #TakeAways Angie and Executive producer Brittany go in-depth about the lessons learned from the interview Loren Ridinger and chat with holistic wellness and grief expert Yvette Davila. A few years ago Angie's longtime friend Yvette, mother of 2, lost her only son due to a sudden cardiac arrest. A few years later she has found a new purpose through her holistic wellness sanctuary 'Eve of Wellness' in New Jersey. Listen to the conversation as she describes the journey of mourning her son and shares the best tools to live with grief.
