from the after: grief and life after loss in your 20s/30s · host The After

What if our grief doesn’t only have one shape, but many? Shapes that change. Shapes that can exist all at once.In this conversation, Vera and Chia explore the different shapes grief can take beyond tears. We talk about the numbness that tries to protect you, the physical ways grief shows up when you can’t cry, and the way loss leads us to ponder those big philosophical questions. Hopefully, in exploring these shapes, we might all make a little bit more sense of our own experience.
