Modern Loss with Rebecca Soffer

We were lucky enough to connect with someone who has truly shaped the grief space: Rebecca Soffer, author, community builder, and cofounder of Modern Loss. In this episode, we talk about how Rebecca turned her personal tragedy of losing both of her parents in her early 30s into a movement that normalizes grief in all its messy, complicated glory.From her days producing The Colbert Report to creating one of Substack’s top newsletters on mental health, Rebecca has been using her voice to remind us that grief isn’t something to “get over”—it’s something we live with, grow through, and even connect around. We get into resilience (the real kind, not the Pinterest-quote kind), the myths we wish people would stop repeating (“everything happens for a reason” can take a seat), and how to hold space for both the pain and the absurdity of loss.Whether you’re deep in it or supporting someone who is, this one’s for you.Going Thru it Connect with Rebecca on Instagram Modern Loss Subscribe to Modern Loss on Substack Modern Loss Handbook
