Episode 1: Grief
Our first episode launches during National Grief Awareness Week. Both Katie & myself have recently experienced significant loss in our lives, Katie with the death of her newborn daughter and me with the loss of her mother.
About the episode
This frank, open and honest discussion is two women baring their hearts to try and help others in a similar situation or those trying to support those burdened with grief.
Death and grief are topics which are often not discussed as people fear them, that’s completely understandable and hopefully talking about our experiences will help others feel more open to sharing their own.
On the video we talked about a series of things which will help and support during times of grief, whether it be yourself or if you are supporting someone experiencing loss.
Trigger Warning: This video does discuss death, loss, grief, cancer, child loss, parental loss and neonatal death.
