About this week’s episode

I know Joshua from being the host of his podcast called Grief Dreams where you can find him talking to numerous people about their grief dreams that they had after one of their deceased loved ones passed, as well as pets. I found the topic of grief dreams fascinating as I had my own series of grief dreams following the death of my mother which came one after, not every night, but every so often and they were like different episodes in the series on Netflix, and they lasted for months. And maybe we're going to talk about this a little bit more, but I'm interested in what Joshua can tell me about his view and his research about it. If you haven't heard of Joshua, don't worry because in today's episode, I'm going to ask him all the questions that you might interested in as well. Let's see where this takes us today.
