The Club Nobody Wants to Join: Choosing to Live Anyway.
from Mandy on the Mountain · host Amanda H Shook, M.Ed.
This isn’t an episode about staying stuck in grief. It’s about choosing to live anyway.Three years after losing her mother, Mandy reflects on the unexpected ways grief continues to evolve. With a little dark humor and a lot of honesty, she talks about the “clubs” nobody ever wants to join, the dead parent club, the dead sibling club, and the quiet community of people learning to carry love after loss.From deciding what to post on birthdays and death anniversaries, to the way songs become time machines and photographs freeze our loved ones in time, Mandy explores how grief has changed in the age of social media, and how loss has a way of changing our perspective on what truly matters.The people we love didn’t leave this world so we would stop living.They’d want us to tell their stories, say their names, laugh at the memories, love deeply, and keep moving forward.Enjoy the ride. ❤️
