In today's episode, Kate talks about her experience with grief after losing her dad out of the blue to cancer. She touches on how isolating it is to lose a parent at a young age and how she's changed as a person due to her grief. Kate talks about what has helped her move through her grief and how our brains change when we experience loss. She discusses the taboos around grief in Western countries as most people do not know how to talk about death and show up for those who are moving through loss.
