Episode 14- Grief Industry

There is a whole ecosystem around bereavement, and it’s a mix of genuinely helpful resources, well-meaning but mismatched advice, and sometimes things that feel overly commercialized or even exploitative.Take what resonates, leave the rest. If something feels supportive, keep it. If it feels off, you’re allowed to reject it without guilt.Watch for pressure or promises. Anything that claims to “fix” grief, speed it up, or give a single “right way” is usually a red flag.Monetization isn’t inherently bad—but intent matters. Some paid resources are created with care and integrity; others lean more on vulnerability than value.Your internal response is a good compass. If something feels authentic, grounding, or gently helpful, that’s worth trusting.
