So... I found out my guest wasn't coming on about two minutes before the livestream was supposed to start. I decided to still do the show and just wing it with some random updates and chit-chat. 😆

Hey there! Welcome to "Mourning Coffee," my weekly livestream where we chat about all things grief. It's a place where I share my own stories of dealing with loss, and trust me, I've got plenty. We’ll also have some amazing guests drop by. They could be anyone who's got something valuable to say about grief – from counselors who help people through tough times, to folks just like you and me who are figuring out how to keep moving forward after a loss.

But here’s the best part – "Mourning Coffee" is all about us, a community of people who understand that grieving is a part of life. It's totally okay to not have all the answers, and here, you can ask questions or just listen and know that you're not alone.

So, grab your favorite mug and join me for a casual, honest, and sometimes even uplifting chat about navigating the tricky waters of grief. It's like hanging out with friends who get what you're going through. Can't wait to see you at our next "Mourning Coffee" session!
