The Grief You're Not Allowed to Have: Psychology of Loss, Power, and Womanhood | Melyssa Munn

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.Some losses are publicly mourned. Others get pushed into silence. Why?This week I'm joined by Melyssa Munn, a UGA neuroscience and women's and gender studies researcher who lost both her parents at 15. Now, she studies the brain science of trauma and writes feminist theory on how women are valued, then dismissed.We get into the psychology of grief, why some losses are quietly erased, what disenfranchised grief actually is, and why so many women learn shame before they learn confidence.If you've ever been told to stay strong or just move on, listen to this one all the way through.
