Listen Later

In this powerful and emotional episode, we sit down with singer and content creator  ⁨@paigeleighofficial⁩  as she opens up about one of the most difficult experiences in her life – the loss of her aunt.


Paige shares her honest journey through grief, depression, anxiety, and the dissociation she experienced following her loss. She speaks openly about how this period affected her mental health and how she slowly began to navigate life again.

Music became a powerful outlet during this time. Paige explains how singing helped her process emotions that were difficult to put into words, and how sharing her performances on TikTok has allowed her to connect with people passing by who may also be carrying hidden struggles of their own.

Through music, conversation, and staying active, Paige found ways to cope and begin healing. Her story is a reminder that grief can take many forms, and that support, creativity, and connection can make a difference.
