Solving the Riddle of Being Human

Grief as Revolution: Reclaiming Our Right to Feel - with J.S. Park


Listen Later

“Permission to grieve is permission to be human.”


Sah is joined by hospital chaplain and author Joon (J.S.) Park to explore the profound art of sitting with suffering in a world obsessed with quick fixes. Drawing from his extensive experience at a Level 1 Trauma Center, J.S. shares the wisdom he's gained from attending countless deaths and supporting people through their darkest moments.

Through intimate dialogue, they examine how capitalism has transformed mourning into an inconvenience and how religious traditions can both heal and hinder the grieving process. J.S. offers insights from his transformative book "As Long As You Need: Permission to Grieve," revealing how our productivity-driven culture has robbed us of the sacred space needed to process loss.

Whether you're navigating personal loss, supporting someone through grief, or seeking to create more compassionate communities, this conversation illuminates the transformative power of simple presence and the courage to sit with pain rather than trying to solve it.
