Description

In 2024, 18-year-old Olivia Allen lost her battle with leukemia, leaving behind a heartbroken family, friends, and a community forever changed.


Nearly a year later, her mother, Mellissa, her sister, Sophia, and her best friend, Aubrey, sit down with Heather to share what life has been like without her. They open up about the reality of grieving a young life lost too soon, the unexpected ways grief has shown up, and how they continue to honor Olivia’s memory.


This raw and deeply personal conversation sheds light on the lasting impact of teenage cancer loss—and the love that never fades.
