In this deeply personal episode, Erin opens up about losing her sister Shanin in 2017 and how grief has shaped her life in ways she never expected. Together, Erin and Jaymes explore what no one tells you about how your brain responds to loss, why grief isn’t linear, and the well-meaning things people say that can unintentionally cause more pain.This conversation isn’t about “fixing” grief—it’s about understanding it, sitting with it, and learning how to show up for ourselves and others with more compassion. Whether you’re navigating loss yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers honesty, empathy, and a reminder that you’re not alone.Join Erin and Jaymes Lackey for our hyper-positive regional podcast highlighting local individuals in Northern California who have a Heart of Gold.Link to Mel Robbin's episode: https://youtu.be/uSZy6Ww3e6A?si=RJYOPzmAI-ZTZApNLink to Kate Bowler's Book: https://katebowler.com/books/everything-happens-for-a-reason-and-other-lies-ive-loved/
