February 09, 2021Episode 6: Grief
It has been a while since the last aired episode. 2020 has been a rough year for many of us. This episode was not easy to record and I apologize for the long pauses. In this episode, I will be discussing my experience of losing a loved one and hope that this may help others in my position as well. Losing a loved one is never easy and may often require leaning on someone we can trust and rely on in times of need. Some resources that I think would be beneficial for you to check out are the following:
