Grief, Faith & Fatherhood: the conversation nobody prepares you for

Grief, loss, and faith: a conversation we don't have nearly enough as Desi dads. This episode of NaanSense! is a bit different. It's heavier, more vulnerable, and deeply personal. Sajid opens up about losing his mom to dementia. Emad shares about losing his younger brother at 19. And Ahmed reflects on the loss of his mother-in-law and how kids process grief.We get into:•⁠  ⁠Losing a loved one — and the complicated process of watching someone age and decline•⁠  ⁠How kids handle grief (and mirror us more than we think)•⁠  ⁠Spiritual bypassing — saying the "right things" vs. actually sitting with the pain•⁠  ⁠Whether men in Desi culture have real space to grieve•⁠  ⁠The role of faith, sabr, and the hope of reuniting•⁠  ⁠How community shows up (and sometimes misses the mark)•⁠  ⁠Celebrating life — not just mourning lossPlus: Riz Ahmed's new show "Bait," Omar Suleiman's Barzakh series, and a Bell Hooks quote that reframes how we think about love and death.NaanSense! is a funny, honest, and real take on fatherhood, parenting, culture, and life after 40 — all from the perspective of South Asian / Desi dads. This week, the "real" part hits a little harder.📸 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/naansenseshow🔔 Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NaanSenseShow🎧 Listen & Subscribe:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/naansense/id1834598344Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/38cCfJ5QfgeOCW80nPJ3mjHosts: Ahmed, Sajid & Emad | Producer: Salman#grief #DesiDads #NaanSenseShow #FatherhoodPodcast
