In a podcast interview with Hoda Kotb on the Making Space podcast in 2021, Vanzant shared her thoughts on her daughter Gemmia\u2019s passing, stating, \u201cGod must\u2019ve really, really trusted me to give me a soul to bring into life and to trust me with the courage to send her out.\u201d She also mentioned how journaling helped her cope with the pain of losing her daughter.<\/p>\n
In a subsequent interview with Tamron Hall in November 2023, Vanzant alluded to the complexities of a parent-child relationship and how a child may bring to light subconscious issues within the parent. She emphasized that a child, especially a daughter, reflects elements within the parent, showing aspects that might have been concealed.<\/p>\n
