When Empathy Runs Thin: Grief, Boundaries, and Holding Space (ft. Emily)
Hosts G and guest Emily aka China dive into how deep loss reshapes empathy, emotional capacity, and the way we show up for others.
Emily opens up about her experience with sudden bereavement, navigating life as a single parent, and the reality of pushing forward while carrying grief. Through her story, this episode explores what happens when your pain changes how you relate to other people—and why everything doesn’t feel the same anymore.
Together, they unpack emotional labor, boundaries, and the tension between wanting to be empathetic and not always having the capacity. From vulnerability and accountability to the quiet guilt of not feeling moved the way you used to, this conversation keeps it honest.
Because sometimes…
you can understand someone’s pain—
and still not feel it the same way.
And that doesn’t make you a bad person.
This episode is for anyone navigating their own healing while still trying to show up for others—without abandoning themselves in the process.
