Grieve Me Alone

Dear Friends & Family of the Bereaved, listen up! Don't take offense, Take action.

Ever lose someone you love, have people show up for you right after , assure you they'll be there for the long haul, then they disappear? Yeah, me too. We tend to lose more living people after we lose our dead loved ones, which then packs on more grief to our initial grief.

Grieve Me Alone welcomes Zach & Alex (aka Jesse Pinkman), our brave first-ish guests.

Join us as we venture into a free-flowing tri-ologue right after MEH CHRISTMAS about the layers of grief, ridic family dynamics, accidentally sitting shiva, "safety meetings",  and what surprised us most about this current grief journey. 

No more spoiler alerts! You just gotta listen.

A dozen-minutes-monologue on forgetting versus remembering, the dance of hope and fear, and the friend that brought us all together, Grief.

Come for a ride with me on this breezy overcast day. Listen... we're all learning along the way, but let's be mindful of the ways we "grief block" the grieving. I'm sure none of us want to pile on more hurt to those in pain.

Do you judge yourself for parts of your "grief process" ? Do you feel weird about things you have done or do and wonder if anyone else out there has done something similar? Do you feel judged by others who think that they would do "it" differently if they were in your shoes? Well, let's talk openly and honestly about it all. Let's change these narratives. Let's go easy on ourselves for how we get through life without our loved ones. Let's remember there's not one other person who could ever know what it's like to be in our shoes because even with the most similar of grief stories, our story is different... Our grief is unique because our relationships are unique and no one else on the planet is you. No one else has lived your life from the very beginning to now. People can think they would do "it" differently if they were in our shoes, but the truth is, they'll never know, and even if they could, we'd probably pray they would never have to know how painful it is to be in our shoes. But then again, maybe just for a moment, so they can reflect on and correct their hurtful judgmental ways. ;) Meh...To each their own.

Oh you know, just a typical run of the mill real vulnerable unedited monologue while sitting on my Momma's grave the day after Thanksgiving...And some cemetery background noises.

Welcome to Grieve Me Alone. Join me on my closet floor as I venture into this journey, that started from an idea that wouldn't leave me alone. Hear a little bit about me, the why behind this podcast, some ideas moving forward, and whatever else I rambled on about for 30+ minutes. Grief be with you, and also with you.
