Ep 63. Surviving "Survivor's Guilt" ft. Julia Mallory

This week Shanti is joined by poet and author Julia Mallory. Together, we talk about her journey with grief after losing her father unexpectedly at the age of 13 followed by the murder of her 17-year-old son in 2017. Join us as we navigate how despite being gripped by grief, Julia deliberately seeks joy and pleasure through her self care practices and writing.
