This episode is about the kind of grief that doesn't come with a funeral. The kind you can't explain because no one died but something in you did. I'm talking about the grief of old identities, broken patterns, emotional abandonment, unspoken childhood wounds and realizing you've hurt people you love without meaning to.
I share what it feels like to hit rock bottom emotionally from a firsthand, real time perspective, espcially in these past few weeks, and how scenes from old movies, ancestral stories and inner child work crack something wide open in me during these times.
This isn't about giving advice. It's about telling the truth. About being self aware enough to recognize our own patterns... and really seeing and feeling them, not just intellectualizing them. It sucks grieving what doesn't have a name. It's hard. Whether you're grieving someone who's still alive, a version of yourself that no longer aligns or a life that didn't unfold the way you hope, this one's for you.
