The latest series centers around the women reuniting and coming to terms with the loss of their sister, Traci, while fans receive a “raw and unfiltered look at the family’s highs and lows.” In this preview of the next episode titled “Healing Takes Time,” the five women sit with a grief counselor . Emotions run high as they unpack the gravity of Traci’s absence.

As the eldest, Toni details her feeling more angry than sad, especially about her own health concerns .

“Before Traci passed, I was kinda angry at God ,” said the “ Breathe Again ” singer. “Why would God take her? I thought it was unfair. It’s unfair that Traci’s the one that’s sick. The one that dying, and I have lupus because I felt like I was the one that was gonna die first.”

Admittedly, Toni uses her music to cope and “ self-medicate ,” but she finds herself wanting to return to the period “just before” her career took off. “The innocence in it? It soothes me. It gives me inner peace because I was hungry. It was innocent. I’m so beyond grateful for what I have, but going back to a time in my life before I made it makes me feel at peace.”
