#76 - What We’ve Been Told About Death & Grief is WRONG

In this special solo episode, I dive into one of the most profound and often avoided topics — grief.
I've received countless messages about this, and it's time to address the heavy, raw emotions that come with losing someone dear.
Through sharing my story, I hope to open a dialogue about grief, break the silence surrounding it, and provide a path for healing and finding strength. Let's normalize this conversation and help each other heal.
I'm incredibly proud of my sister's work in transforming her grief into art. She has created a powerful and moving play titled "Someone Spectacular" that delves into the raw and emotional loss experience. You can learn more about it and get tickets at https://someonespectacularplay.com/
