Grief, it strikes all of us. Sometimes it creeps up and other times we experience it through sudden moments. Making the topic of grief more open and less awkward are two incredible friends.
Sally Douglas and Imogen Carn are the creators and co-hosts of Good Mourning, a podcast and online support community on a mission to normalise talking about grief, through wholehearted conversations with honesty and humour.
They joined “the club” - a club that no-one really wants to be a part of - when their mums both died suddenly just months apart in late 2019 and early 2020. Noticing a lack of resources that talked about grief in a candid way, they launched Good Mourning to shine a light on the realities of grief, to provide support and education on what loss is really like.
In this conversation we chat about navigating grief, what surprised them about their own grief experiences, the importance of setting boundaries and what their guilty pleasures are.
If grief is something you are currently experiencing it’s important to reach out. Good Mourning have great resources and always know that you can reach out to LifeLine on 13 11 14.
Sal & Im’s connection, humour and care are infectious. Lean into this important conversation with Sal & Im.
