In today's episode, we're covering a topic that isn't often spoken about, but is estimated to affect around one in four families: family estrangement. It's a subject that writer and Irish Times contributor Laura Kennedy wrote about recently in her Substack, detailing the complicated grief she experienced following the death of her father late last year - a man she hadn't seen in over a decade. In today's episode, Kennedy joins Róisín Ingle to reflect on the strange, unsettling reality of losing a parent whose death changes almost nothing in her daily life. You can find her piece on family estrangement on Substack here https://lkennedy.substack.com/But first, Irish Times opinion editor Jennifer O'Connell is here to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week including France's ‘Handmaid's Tale' moment and a revealing confession made by an Olympic athlete at the winter games this week.

A fatal shooting in Texas is now charged as murder after a dispute over French fries ends a teenager’s life inside a Fort Worth apartment.

We all walk through different seasons of life, and Father Dave welcomes Sister Colleen Gibson to discuss accompanying those in times of grief. Sister Colleen belongs to the Congregation of the Sisters of Saint Joseph, and co-hosts the "Beyond the Habit" podcast. She currently serves as the Coordinator of Pastoral Care at St. John-St. Paul Catholic Collaborative in Wellesley, MA, where among many things she helps run a bereavement ministry called "Seasons of Hope."  

Elizabeth Klug is a mother, wife, and realtor whose story is shaped by the unimaginable—and the love that remains. She and her husband are both BRCA2 gene carriers, and they lost two of their four children to Fanconi anemia, a rare and fatal genetic condition. In this raw and powerful conversation, Elizabeth shares what it's like to parent through grief, how she and her husband survived the strain of repeated loss, and why she still proudly says she's a mom of four.Heather and Elizabeth talk about marriage, advocacy, and the pressure to stay strong when your world has been shattered. They explore the complex emotions of guilt and anger, the burden of genetic knowledge, and how Elizabeth's living children continue to bring meaning, connection, and light into her life. This conversation is deeply honest, heartbreaking, and full of hard-earned wisdom from a woman learning to live alongside grief.Resources & Ways to ConnectLearn more about Fanconi anemia:https://www.fanconi.org/Jake's Help from Heaven Website: http://jakeshelpfromheaven.org/Jake's Help from Heaven Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jakeshelpJake's Help from Heaven Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jakeshelpAPOY Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aplaceofyespodcastHeather's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heathersstraughterOur YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@aplaceofyespodcast

In this week's episode of Therapy Works, I'm joined by Charlotte Bellamy, who speaks with extraordinary openness about the death of her son Finn, who was stillborn at 28 weeks. Charlotte takes us through the shock of reduced movements, the devastating moment she was told “there's no heartbeat”, and the surreal reality that even in loss, you still have to give birth. We talk about the grief of missing the baby you'd imagined, alongside the trauma of what happens medically and physically, and Charlotte shares how her sister, a midwife, supported her and her husband Milo through those first unbearable days and helped them create precious memories with Finn. We also explore how Charlotte and Milo grieved differently, why therapy and understanding the body's response to grief helped, and how fear can shape everything that comes after. Charlotte describes the marathon of pregnancy after loss and the practical ways she protected herself, from having someone with her at scans to telling staff upfront what she needed. At the end, Sophie and Emily join me to reflect on the importance of support, naming, and speaking about the baby who has died, because using Finn's name and remembering him isn't “bringing it up”, it's honouring a life that mattered.If Only If create beautifully made nightwear that feels thoughtful, timeless, and deeply comforting at the end of the day.

I think we must shift the focus away from seeking "closure"—a misleading term—to the active process of adjusting to a new reality. The work emphasizes that while grief is a complex physical and emotional disruption, real healing is about adjusting to a new normal where they are still present in your heart, but your life continues to grow.

Resentment doesn't always look like anger. In addiction recovery and betrayal healing, it often shows up quietly—through defensiveness, withdrawal, or feeling controlled.In Part 3 of our Resentment series, we explore:Why sharing resentment too early can emotionally burden your partnerHow resentment forms underneath shame, fear, and loss of controlThe role of emotional containment in creating real safetyWhy empathy without boundaries is harmfulHow deeper emotional work reduces defensiveness and prevents relapseChapters00:24 Understanding Resentment in Recovery02:05 Timing and Responsibility in Sharing Resentment04:13 Containment and Emotional Regulation06:14 Common Triggers of Resentment06:54 Parts Work and Internal Conflicts11:25 Empathy, Boundaries, and Emotional Maturity22:15 Grieving and Letting Go of the Past27:13 Benefits of Deep Emotional WorkRegister Now!

In this episode of Life Beyond Clinical Practice, Dr. Diane Van Staden explores the theme of career grief, particularly focusing on the emotional turmoil that arises when one's professional life no longer aligns with personal identity and fulfillment. She emphasizes the importance of acknowledging this grief, understanding its implications, and allowing oneself to reflect on the changes in one's career path. The episode encourages listeners to embrace their feelings and recognize that caring about their future is a vital part of the awakening process. Takeaways This episode is part of a sequential series intended for deep reflection. Career grief is a quiet loss that many health professionals experience. Grieving a career while still in it is a real and valid experience. Grief is about identity and belonging, not just the work itself. Ignoring grief can lead to fatigue and disengagement. Acknowledging grief can lead to clarity and self-respect. You can hold both gratitude for the past and grief for the present. Grief does not require immediate decisions, just acknowledgment. Reflection on what you are grieving can lead to personal insights. Caring about your future is essential for personal awakening.   TAKE ACTION: Download the Awakening Series Reflection worksheet https://docs.google.com/document/d/10RQ3mwub3WhH1Qy34unIWxLaMCazLjwoPCQNJHIfxMg/edit?usp=sharing Sign up for the Pivot Crash Course

Family estrangement is becoming increasingly common in the United States, with nearly one in four Americans now estranged from at least one close family member. In this episode of the Feel Free Again Podcast, I sit down with grief recovery specialist Victoria to have a deeply honest, nuanced conversation about why family estrangement happens, when it may be necessary, and when it may actually be causing more harm than healing. We talk about unresolved grief, emotional pain, mismatched values, expectations, boundaries, forgiveness, and the cultural shifts that have changed how families relate to one another. I share what I've seen after working with hundreds of people in grief recovery — adult children, parents, siblings — all heartbroken, often good people on both sides of the estrangement. We explore how unfinished emotional business, misunderstood boundaries, and unspoken expectations can quietly dismantle relationships, sometimes without either side fully understanding why. This conversation is not about shaming anyone for choosing distance. It's about clarity, emotional responsibility, and reclaiming your agency. Grief recovery offers tools to help you assess whether estrangement is protecting you — or whether unresolved pain is driving decisions that don't align with who you truly are. If you're navigating family conflict, estrangement, forgiveness, or emotional healing, this episode will challenge you to slow down, reflect, and consider a different path forward. ⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 — Why Family Estrangement Is Rising 05:12 — Cultural Shifts and the Breakdown of Family Systems 09:47 — Expectations, Boundaries, and Planned Disappointments 14:01 — The Danger of Acting on Incomplete Emotional Pain 18:48 — Taking 1% Responsibility and Reclaiming Power 23:32 — Why Forgiveness Isn't Weakness 28:23 — When Boundaries Become Emotional Walls 33:56 — The Grief of Parents Estranged From Adult Children 39:46 — Love, Acceptance, and Letting Others Choose 45:12 — How Grief Recovery Helps Heal or Clarify Estrangement 47:12 — Detoxing From Collective Drama Before Family Gatherings 50:47 — Teaching Kids Responsibility for Their Own Feelings 53:26 — Grieving the Child Who Is Growing Up 1:00:55 — How to Know If Estrangement Was the Right Choice Connect with Victoria: Website: https://theunleashedheart.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/victoriavolk/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theunleashedheartllc/ GRM Website: https://www.griefrecoverymethod.com/grms/victoria-volk About the Host:  Cole James, President of the Grief Recovery Institute, shares about the Power of Grief Recovery!

Well, this goes much deeper than you think. Let me explain. Everyone has some type of grief in their lives, some haven't yet, but it's part of life. We can't escape it, BUT we can work through it.

Two cataclysmic events have shaped Dr Lucy Hone’s relationship with grief, and resilience.

Beloved, As a intuitive and long time hypnotherapist, I've seen many testimonies that what I'm about to share is one hundred percent true and will bring you warmth, hope and love into your heart. May it hep you see the big picture from your oversoul and highest timeline. Let's jump in. No One Crosses Over the Veil - AloneDeath is the greatest lie ever told. We never truly die. The soul is eternal energy that cannot be destroyed.Souls who cross over quickly realize heaven is real. Their main message: “I'm okay—and I'm still with you.”Grieving? Notice repeating numbers, flickering lights, temperature shifts, feeling watched, vivid dreams? These are signs from loved ones saying they're at peace.Most people fear death—even believers—especially when facing illness or unwilling to leave. That fear often spreads to those left behind.Every living being has a soul. It creates deep bonds, empathy, and love—even with pets. Souls ABSOLUTELY recognize other souls.Our innocent souls are created in the spark of light, from the council of light and source - and then sent to Earth with purpose, gifts, relationships, and lessons. Your Soul's Contract is pre-meditated and unleashed with FREE WILL. When our time ends, it's a transition—not an ending.At death, the soul leaves the body. Pain, illness, dementia, physical losses stay behind. The soul emerges whole and restored.Religion is a institution of beliefs and LAWS, but are NOT divine. “Souls dont go to heaven if they dont repent, soul's get lost or cannot transition….” - its all a notion I will challenge. No one crosses alone.Loved ones, family, friends, and pets in spirit are alerted and greet you.Deathbed visions are real and documented medically.Angels and the LIGHT are seen as one releases the carnal saturation of beliefs. Fear vanishes the instant you see familiar faces. Transition feels like stepping into a vivid, peaceful dream—weightless, worry-free, fully present.Many don't realize they've passed at first—too happy reuniting. If worried about loved ones left behind, they're often shown a preview of their future to ease guilt and allow peaceful release.Souls can briefly linger during transition—see and hear the living, choose when to fully cross.Near-death experiences confirm this: freedom from pain, reunions, then return. They prove there's no true end.On the other side, souls pick personal signs—butterflies, songs, cardinals, rainbows—to reach you and ways to help—guiding love, support, and more.They stay involved—watching over big moments and tough times. Talk to them. They're eager to connect through signs, dreams, and feelings.The more you learn about the afterlife, the less fear you feel—and the stronger the connection grows. Your loved ones are always near.LOVE, KASSANDRAPS: How would your life change if you reduced daily overwhelm and improved your intuition?Step into The Light Between* Daily Insights: Sharpen focus and align actions with your truth.* A 5-Layer Path to get clear in times of stress or a daily self inquiry for growth and expansion.NEXT STEPS: 1.

WAIT CONFERENCE | 2026-Day 15| WORSHIP AS A CONTINUOUS RESPONSE TO THE FATHER| CHIMDI OHAHUNA In this compelling session of WAIT CONFERENCE'26, we explore worship not as a momentary act or emotional posture, but as a lifelong transition into confidence, communion, and sonship. Anchored in Romans 8:15–17, we are reminded that just as Jesus called God “Father,” we too, as heirs and joint heirs with Christ, are invited into that same intimacy and authority. But this inheritance comes with responsibility. To walk as joint heirs, we must embrace the same understanding of the Father that Jesus carried while on earth. Referencing Psalm 16:10, we see Jesus surrender His spirit with full confidence that His soul would not be abandoned. This confidence in the Father is the heartbeat of worship. Key revelations from this session include:  - Worship is a transition, not just a disposition (2 Corinthians 3:18). It's a journey of growing in confidence in the Father God.  - Jesus had a standpoint, not just a status. As joint heirs, we must adopt His posture of trust, obedience, and spiritual clarity.  - The Holy Spirit is essential. Just as He enabled Christ to serve the Father perfectly (Galatians 4:6), He empowers us to live as true heirs, fully aligned with the Godhead.  - Worship is impossible without the Holy Spirit. He is the communicator of divine truth, the indwelling fullness of God, and the one who enables us to cry “Abba Father.”  - Grieving the Holy Spirit happens when we ignore His voice or act independently. Worship begins with listening, responding, and walking in step with Him.  - Our entire life is a response to the Father. Worship is not confined to a song or a service, it is the soul's continuous cry, enabled by the Spirit, rooted in sonship (Ephesians 1:4–5; 2 Corinthians 5:21). This episode is a call to live worship, not just express it. To grow in confidence, commune with the Holy Spirit, and maintain the standpoint of Christ. Worship is the soul's eternal response to the Father, and only through the Spirit can we live it fully. Tune in now and be stirred to embrace worship as your lifestyle, your identity, and your eternal rhythm. Jesus is Lord.

Have you ever found yourself grieving something that never actually happened? A relationship you thought would look different. Support you expected to have. A season of life you believed you'd be in by now.In this episode, we talk honestly about grieving failed expectations—especially the quiet grief many women carry in adulthood, including unmet expectations in relationships with parents, delayed dreams, unanswered prayers, and seasons that didn't turn out the way we imagined.Using the story of Hannah in 1 Samuel, we explore what it looks like to grieve a holy disappointment without shame. Hannah didn't hide her pain or try to sound spiritual. She poured out her soul before God—and Scripture shows us that God did not rebuke her grief, minimize it, or rush her healing.This conversation will remind you:You're allowed to feel what you feelGod can handle the grief of what never came to beSuppressed pain doesn't disappear—it leaksSurrendered pain can be repurposed into compassion, purpose, and healingIf you've been holding it together on the outside while quietly breaking on the inside, this episode is for you. You don't have to numb, run, or pretend. God invites you to bring it all to Him and promises to meet you with grace.“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18–To connect with Lauren or to become a Supporter, visit gravetop.com and follow her @laurenahargrove on Instagram and Facebook

In this episode, Kayleigh sits down with Abigail to talk about her first birth complicated by low amniotic fluid, a late preterm induction, and a long, emotionally exhausting NICU stay, and how that experience shaped her postpartum mental health and feeding journey. Abigail also shares her second birth story, including intentional preparation, advocacy, and what it looked like to face another NICU admission without it becoming traumatic. This episode is a powerful conversation about control, grief, healing, and how trauma-informed care and support can change everything.In this episode, we talk about:

With the return of Ran Gvili's body, many Jewish leaders are publicly inviting community members to stand up from their proverbial shivas and re-engage with normal life. Federations across North America are welcoming—even memorializing—the return of ceremonial dog tags and yellow pins. But it's been two and a half years of incorporating these thoughts into Jewish ritual life, adding prayers for the hostages at High Holidays and the Shabbat table. What happens now? Can we ever truly go "back to normal"? Our three rabbinic podcasters discuss on this week's episode of Not in Heaven. Later in the episode, they look at the Jewish response to the ICE raids in the United States. Some Jews are offering to hide their Haitian caregivers as President Donald Trump's administration cracks down on deportations; some rabbis are mobilizing in Minnesota after immigration officers murdered a number of civilian protesters. Where is the Jewish community standing during this fraught time in American political life?

When Christina Babich's partner, Alex, died suddenly from a brain aneurysm while they were visiting his family in Italy, her world shattered in more ways than one. In addition to the grief of losing the person she loved and the future they were building together, Christina was also left to navigate the aftermath of a deeply traumatic event - one that profoundly impacted her nervous system, sense of safety, and identity.  In this episode, Christina shares what it was like to grieve a sudden, "out-of-order" death while also navigating the derealization, hypervigilance, and other ways the trauma of his death affected her. She talks about how being a "quasi widow" shaped the care and recognition she received and why platitudes about resilience and post-traumatic growth can sometimes feel alienating rather than supportive.  Christina also reflects on how her personal experience shaped her work as a psychologist specializing in grief and trauma, including the role of Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), the pressure placed on people who are grieving to "transform" their pain, and the importance of being witnessed by someone who truly understands.  We discuss The difference between grief and trauma - and how they often coexist Derealization, PTSD, and nervous system responses after a sudden death What Christina means by "quasi-widow"  Why platitudes about strength and growth can feel harmful How Cognitive Processing Therapy was helpful for her Grieving lost identities, futures, and imagined lives  Finding connection with others who can relate  Living day-to-day when the future feels overwhelming  Connect with Christina Website: https://www.christinababich.com/ Substack: christinababich.substack.com

This story deals with suicide and mental health. The parents of a Tauranga teenager who took her own life are calling for improvements to the country's mental health system. 16-year-old Maddie Hall died in March 2023, almost three years after she was first taken to hospital. Timothy Brown reports.

'We've lost someone deeply important to us and the way each of us is grieving couldn't be more different. Some of us want to talk constantly. Some of us don't and it's becoming harder to coexist without tension. Now we feel towards each other. Small things turn into arguments because underneath it all we're all hurting just in different ways. I find myself thinking, why can't I cope like them? Or why can't they see how hard this is for me? Then I feel guilty for thinking that. I can't stop thinking about my mum who has died. What would she think?'Thank you to the HIA.ie for supporting Better Days this season.

In this episode, I talk about the most fantastic mess that is life after stillbirth. This is emotional whiplash at its finest...Loss mamas are out here doing the damn thing every single day—showing up, parenting, working, laughing—and still grieving, spiraling, and holding a whole lot beneath the surface. Two things can be true at once, and they usually are.I share a moment where I blurted out something dark but completely factual… and the person on the receiving end said absolutely nothing. We get into how grief conversations have evolved (or haven't), why people don't know what to do with us, and how wildly inappropriate things still get said to our faces—like, “I would have died if something happened to my baby.” Cool. Thanks. Super helpful.This episode is about the messiness, the awkwardness, the growth, the rage, the humor, and the reality of living after stillbirth. It's about surviving, adapting, and learning how to exist in a world that's uncomfortable with our truth.If you're a loss mama trying to hold it together while falling apart, this one's for you.Welcome to the fantastic mess.

In this episode of The Yoga Inspiration Podcast, Kino MacGregor sits down with hospital chaplain, writer, and grief expert J.S. Park for a deeply grounding conversation about grief, presence, and what it means to live with an open heart in a world that can feel overwhelming. They explore why grief is not something to fix or overcome, but something to honor, carry, and let transform over time. Kino reflects on communal grief in the Ashtanga world after the loss of a spiritual teacher, and J.S. offers compassionate insight into why we reach for solutions, why closure can be a myth, and how grief changes shape rather than disappearing. Together they talk about treasured objects and rituals as anchors when words fail, the ways spirituality and community can either support or collapse under real-world suffering, and how spiritual practice must include our shared humanity and collective responsibility. J.S. also shares his path from atheism toward faith through witnessing love in community, and they unpack the tension between the teachings of Jesus and the harm done in the name of religion. This episode is for anyone holding loss, navigating a crisis of faith, feeling exhausted by "move on" culture, or looking for a spiritual practice that helps you show up with tenderness and integrity. Guest: J.S. Park is a hospital chaplain, writer, and grief educator. He is the author of As Long As You Need: Permission to Grieve. Topics covered • Grief as something to honor, not solve • Why "closure" is not the goal and grief changes shape • Grieving the dream, not just the person • Treasured objects and ritual as grief anchors • When words fail and the role of art, music, and practice • Faith crises and spiritual seasons • From atheism to faith through love and community • Spiritual practice, justice, and resisting dehumanization • Boundaries, self care, and what actually sustains us • Mortality as an invitation to live more tenderly, now Resources As Long As You Need: Permission to Grieve by J.S. Park Practice with Kino on Omstars Continue the conversation on the mat.

How do you process grief? How does your husband process grief? Marriage is full of many good and lovely seasons. But every marriage will also experience losses. How do we process those losses in a way that brings us closer to one another and also closer to God? How is processing grief a chance to lean into God's design for marriage? How can we work through differences in the way we grieve without bitterness or resentment?Listen in to a real and vulnerable conversation with Clarissa Abbott, mom to two little girls and husband to Ryan, who serves with YWAM in Perth, Australia.

After losing both her mother and her son within two years, Marie Crews found herself shattered—and searching for meaning in the wreckage. What began as journaling to survive became the foundation for a new purpose: helping others navigate the darkness of grief through writing, connection, and community.In this episode, Marie shares how her own experience with sudden, traumatic loss reshaped her understanding of healing. She opens up about the complexity of compound grief, the doubts that haunt many bereaved parents, and how her spiritual connection with her son continues to guide her. Marie also reflects on building her journaling-based grief retreats, the importance of giving yourself permission to feel joy again, and why sharing stories helps us move forward without leaving our loved ones behind.Resources & Ways to ConnectMarie's Website: https://www.mariecrews.comAPOY Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aplaceofyespodcastHeather's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heathersstraughterJake's Help from Heaven Website: http://jakeshelpfromheaven.org/Jake's Help from Heaven Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jakeshelpJake's Help from Heaven Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jakeshelpOur YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@aplaceofyespodcast

Stephen Miller, Donald Trump, Kristi Noem, J.D. Vance, and the entire MAGA Klan murdered Alex Pretti. They sent Bovino into early retirement, but he must be arrested, along with his agents who shot 10 bullets into Pretti, an ICU nurse for the VA who spent his life helping others. Demand the impeachment of President Stephen Miller: force Trump to throw him under the bus, too. It's a start to the demands for justice.  To honor Pretti and our work ahead, find time to grieve. We cannot power through this collective rage and anxiety without releasing it. Even the strong need to cry in the shower. If we don't sit with our grief, it will force you to. Grieving is an act of resistance. It changes you, and it plants the seeds of justice that we will use to build a better world together. To the people of Minnesota, you have created an American Maidan, standing strong against tyranny. Even Ukrainians, freezing in the cold from Russia bombing their electrical grids, see you, and are calling your movement a Maidan. To grow a real resistance, we share a message recorded by Annie, a Gaslit Nation listener in Minneapolis.  Our victory is guaranteed because our enemies are cowards who hide behind masks. America has defeated the Klan before. We must fight with urgency in a generational struggle. Join the General Strike this Friday January 31st. Divest from the corporations funding the MAGA regime–look to Cut Off the Spigot to learn how. And most importantly, stand by each other. As the people of Minnesota showed us, singing "Stand by Me" in the face of fascism: we win through our culture of care. Tonight's episode will run as usual. It's an examination on how the Church Committee Report, which exposed the mass-murdering FBI and CIA, shows us how to overcome our mass-murdering state today.  Join our community of listeners and get bonus shows, ad free listening, group chats with other listeners, ways to shape the show, invites to exclusive events like our Monday political salons at 4pm ET over Zoom, and more!

I felt sick while watching a movie scene, so I walked out. What was that exactly? Grieving or quenching the Spirit? Or was it my own spirit provoked within me? Or my conscience? And what if I had remained in the theater? Would my ministry effectiveness be blocked until I confess it? Does a wall build up between us and God when we sin? What are your thoughts on the spiritual disciplines?

In this episode of Grief Out Loud, we talk with Adell Coleman about her mother who was killed when Adell was just 24 years old. Adell reflects on the closeness of their relationship and how her mom's death radically shifted her sense of safety in the world. She shares how the circumstances around her mother's death, including being the person who found her, has made it difficult to remember how her mom lived, without reliving how she died.  Adell also talks about what it's been like raising two daughters who never met their grandmother, but somehow carry her presence in surprising and meaningful ways. She reflects on anniversaries 14 years later, the exhaustion of grief, and how becoming the family "grief expert" interrupted her capacity to engage with her own grief.  The conversation closes with Adell describing how community, therapy, boundaries, and creative work - including her documentary and podcast, Echoes of Her: To Mom With Love - have helped her find language, connection, and space for her grief.   We discuss Losing a mother in young adulthood and feeling "not ready" to be an adult How violent death and trauma impact grief and memory  The challenge of accessing good memories when you are dealing with traumatic imagery  Parenting while grieving and helping children connect with a grandparent they never met  Anniversaries, emotional exhaustion, and grief over time  Becoming the family "grief expert" and having to put off personal grief  Finding community after loss and why the right support can take time  Creating meaning through storytelling, connection, and creative projects Adell's documentary and her new podcast, Echoes of Her: To Mom With Love  Connect with Adell Instagram: @iamadellcoleman  Podcast: Echoes of Her Threads: @iamadellcoleman Documentary: Echoes of Her: To Mom With Love Substack: On My Momma                

In this episode, I talk about the part of grief that doesn't fit the mold—the way loss makes you different, and how few people truly understand the way we navigate the world afterward. There's an unexpected empowerment that comes from owning that difference. From letting go of how grief should look. From stopping the need to be understood. And from building a life after loss in the way you need to, not the way others expect. If you've ever felt like a misfit in your grief, about how you're doing this and am looking for guidance on owning it, this one is for you. JOIN LOSSLINK.COM to find your loss posse ************************************* NOTE: I am not a doctor or a therapist.

In this episode, we normalize the conversations around donor egg IVF, grieving genetics, and age appropriate conversations for donor conceived children with Sherri Sawyerr. About Sherri: Sherri Sawyerr is a proud mother, storyteller, and fertility advocate whose journey to motherhood was shaped by faith, loss, and unwavering love. After facing the heartbreak of infertility, she and her husband chose the path of donor egg IVF—a decision that led them to the beautiful gift of their daughter. Determined to create more representation for families like hers, Sherri began sharing her story to help others feel less alone. Her heartfelt children's book, Love Grew Me, was written to help parents explain donor conception to their children with honesty and compassion—especially in Black families, where these conversations are often missing from mainstream narratives. A graduate of Spelman College, Sherri now lives in the Atlanta area with her husband, their daughter, and their two beloved dogs. Whether through her writing, speaking, or simply showing up online with vulnerability and grace, she is helping to redefine what family looks like—and reminding us all that love is what truly makes a family.

Father encourages us to stop feeling sorry for ourselves and move forward. Anoint somebody!

What does it look like to show up well for those walking through grief? When someone we know is walking through grief, we want to help by knowing what to say to ease their pain.  And yet, many of us feel awkward around grief and loss.

What is it like to live in a democracy under stress? This video explores the emotional reality for people witnessing the erosion of American norms under Trumpism. From grief and shame to fear, anger, and the collapse of trust in institutions, it examines the psychological weight of watching democratic guardrails fail. We also reflect on recent tragedies, like the murder of Renee Nicole Good by a federal agent, as stark examples of how unchecked power and normalized violence amplify fear and moral distress. Amid it all, hope survives—not as naive optimism, but as a disciplined commitment to care, resist, and act. If you've felt disoriented, exhausted, or heartsick about the state of democracy, this video is for you.
