How We Grieve Loss, Life, and the Living


Listen Later

In this episode, our panel gets real about something we all face but rarely know how to talk about: grief in all its forms.

We begin with a raw and honest conversation after a member of our panel experienced a recent loss. From there, we open the door to the many ways grief shows up—grieving someone who passed, grieving someone who’s still alive, and grieving the version of a relationship we wish we had.

Key Topics We Explore:

  • What to say instead of the usual “my condolences” when words feel awkward
  • How to offer unconditional support without clichés or pressure
  • Why grieving the living—because of boundaries, change, or distance—hits just as hard
  • What words actually bring comfort (and which ones don’t)
  • Why grief can make us angry, numb, or unrecognizable to ourselves
  • Jamie opens up about the anger she carried after losing her father
  • Britt talks about the heartbreak of letting go of people who are still here
  • Over 21 shares her perspective on grief and what it’s teaching her now
  • How grief can throw your whole life out of balance—and how to find your footing again

This is a powerful conversation about loss, love, boundaries, identity, and the messy human truth that grief doesn’t follow rules. If you’re grieving anything or anyone—past or present—you’re not alone.
