Good Grief: Amanda Kloots tells her incredible story
Back in the very early days of the pandemic, the story of Amanda Kloots and Nick Cordero captivated the nation. Amanda a fitness mogul and dancer met Nick, an actor and singer, back in 2014 during the development of a brand-new Broadway musical. When Nick was hospitalized with a severe case of Covid-19 back in March 2020, their world was flipped upside down. In the 95 days that Nick spent fighting for his life in the ICU, Amanda shared updates to her social media, rallying a rapidly growing community of supporters around her. She stayed infectiously positive as she urged her followers to sing and dance to Nick’s music, and ultimately created a movement around the hashtag #WakeUpNick. On July 5, 2020, Nick passed. In the year since his passing, Amanda, now a single mother to their son Elvis, has become a symbol of hope and resilience, finding strength in the face of the unthinkable. On this episode of The Well+Good podcast, Amanda and her sister Anna–who has been there through it all–discuss how when it comes to living life and navigating loss, there is no script.
