Where Should We Begin? with Esther Perel

Esther Calling - Grief is Like a Fingerprint


Listen Later

This episode contains discussions of a death by suicide. Please take care listening.


Recently, on Where Should We Begin, we've been focusing on the things we sweep under the rug in our relationships—conversations that we have a hard time having with ourselves let alone with others. This week, Esther talks to a woman stricken with grief--one year ago, her sister and father died in quick succession. Her remaining family was torn apart and she feels left to pick up the pieces on her own. Esther walks her through how to make space for the immeasurable grief.
