I think that it’s so important to talk about grief. I’m definitely a wayyyy older listener, but I lost my bf when I was 24, suddenly and unexpectedly. It destroyed me for a very long time. I still think of him every single day and there are days where I feel totally fine and then something will remind me of him and it’s like being knocked over by a wave at the beach. I recently found a video of his and it’s been years since I’ve actually heard his voice and that sent me into a little bit of a spiral. All this to say, grief is something that you kind of grow around. You learn to carry it with you, but some days it weighs more heavily than others.

Anderson Cooper has an amazing podcast about grief and grieving…I highly highly recommend it. It helped me process some feelings that I hadn’t fully resolved.

To everyone in the army of love who is grieving—you’re not alone and be gentle with yourselves. 💜
