Grieving Son: The Podcast

What Becoming A Father Taught Me About Grief


Listen Later

Becoming a father didn’t erase my grief, it reshaped it.

In this episode of Grieving Son, I share how stepping into fatherhood opened parts of my heart I didn’t even realize were still hurting. The joy of welcoming my daughter was real, but so was the ache of knowing my parents would never meet her. What I thought would heal me instead revealed the depth of my love, my loss, and the quiet weight I still carry.

This episode is about learning to hold joy and grief at the same time, understanding your parents in new ways once you become one yourself, and discovering that new life doesn’t replace loss. It simply teaches you how to live alongside it.


If you’re navigating parenthood and grief, or know someone who is, this one is for you.
