What Do I Say (Re-Release)
from Two Mothers, One Aché: A Grief Dialogue · host Yvette Dávila, Dionne C. Monsanto
What do you say to someone who is grieving? In this heartfelt and at times laugh-through-the-tears episode, Dionne and Yvette unpack the well-meaning but wounding things people actually said to them — "at least you have other children," "time heals all wounds," "how are you doing with your guilt?" — and why they land so wrong. But this is an episode about empathy, not shame. The sisters in grief share the words and actions that truly bring comfort: a hug, a held hand, "I'm right here with you," and showing up to do the labor — fold the laundry, bring the food, wash the dishes. Because the worst thing you can do is disappear. Don't ghost a griever. Your words don't have to be perfect. They just have to come from the heart.
