About this episode
This week on Reclaiming, we chat with the brilliant Beanie Feldstein, the actor who brought a pivotal chapter of Monica's life to the screen. Beanie opens up about the challenges of portraying a real person, the emotional depth of stepping into someone else’s story, and the power of storytelling to shift narratives. Beyond the screen, she shares how personal loss shaped her, from navigating her own grief after the death of her brother, to becoming a counselor at Experience Camps, where she helps grieving children find healing. She also reflects on the joy of her wedding day -- the magical venue, a prophetic dream, and matching Gucci. With warmth and humor, Beanie speaks about love, loss, and family. Don’t miss this heartfelt and deeply personal conversation.
