The X Perspective Podcast

Carrying the Burden of Expectations in Grief


Listen Later

Imagine being in so much pain that you feel as though you don’t have the space or the option to process the loss of a loved one. On top of that, you’re faced with the expectations of others who believe you should grieve and mourn in a certain way.


When cultural and societal expectations clash with your own choices about how to grieve, what should you do?


In this thought-provoking episode, American–Puerto Rican Cindy Rodriguez Constable shares the whirlwind of emotions and the expectations she grappled with following the death of her best friend and husband, Kevin Kelly.


Ultimately, it set Cindy on a path that revealed a key insight about herself and allowed her to establish the boundaries she had long needed.


Tune in as 53-year-old Cindy reflects on the internal and external expectations that weighed on her during this profoundly intense period of her life.
