@newellamusic: About a year ago, I shared a Grief City clip about struggling with insecurity and no longer feeling safe as a daughter after losing my dad. I almost didn’t share it. It was the first time I had publicly opened up that part of my grief, and honestly, I felt a little silly talking about it. Then I opened TikTok in the days that followed and was flooded with hundreds of comments and DMs from daughters saying, I feel this too. Sometimes I still wonder what the heck I’m doing talking about grief on a podcast. I’m not a professional. I’ve been to one therapy session. I couldn’t even finish the one grief book I tried to read. I’ve never been to a support group. I feel “unqualified” most days. But some of the most profound support I’ve experienced after loss has simply come from hearing someone else’s story and realizing I’m not alone. I don’t have grief figured out. We’re closing in on five years without my dad, and there are parts of losing my mother-in-law that I still haven’t let myself fully process. I go between feeling good, feeling numb and wanting to sob. But I’ve learned something powerful happens when we let other people into our grief. Whether you’re new here or have been here awhile, I’m thankful for you. I’m thankful you let me share my grief and that you so bravely share yours with me. I never, ever take that for granted. Grief work is sacred work. This clip is from the new season of Grief City, and I can’t wait to share it and the incredible guests with you. I hate why I’m here sharing this podcast in the first place. But this podcast, and my life after loss, are a testament to something I desperately needed to know five years ago: Beautiful things can still happen after tragedy. 🤍 #griefandloss #griefjourney #fatherloss
