Grief Isn’t Linear

Click here to send us questions, thoughts, or funny stories of life to share on our podcast! Grief doesn’t follow a neat checklist; it’s messy, unpredictable, and deeply personal. In this episode, Aubre talks about the weight of grief, the funerals attended, conversations about loved ones, and the tears that followed. It’s been a summer of saying too many goodbyes. We unpack what it means to navigate grief without a timeline. We’ll talk about the surprising ways grief can show up, why those “five stages” don’t tell the whole story, and how to care for yourself when the waves hit unexpectedly. Whether you’re grieving a person, a relationship, or a part of yourself, this conversation offers compassion, validation, and practical tools for the road ahead.Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussion of suicide.
