What do you do when your world falls apart—but the rest of the world expects you to show up like nothing happened? In this raw and honest episode, Chris and Candi unpack what it’s like to grieve a child in a society that doesn’t understand loss. From tone-deaf comments to unrealistic expectations, we share validation, spicy boundary-setting tips, and the truth grieving parents need to hear: you’re not broken—you’re doing the impossible.

Child loss doesn’t just break your heart—it blows your whole damn life apart. Today, we’re talking about what it really feels like when you realize the old you is gone—and you’re stuck trying to build a new version out of the wreckage. Newsflash: Laughing again? Still grieving. Wanting more out of life? Still grieving. Becoming someone new? Still freaking grieving. You’re not moving on—you’re moving with. Grab your coffee (or your wine)—this one’s raw, real, and a little rebellious.

Grief isn’t a straight line—and it doesn’t care that you’re “supposed” to be okay by now.In this episode, we’re calling out the pressure to hold it together and exploring what healing really looks like when you’re still crying in Target and canceling plans to survive.If you’ve ever felt like a mess and wondered if you’re doing this wrong—this one’s for you.

Have you ever felt like your child was still with you—just on the other side of the veil? A flickering light. A dream that felt too vivid to ignore. A song on the radio at the exact moment you needed it. In this episode, we’re talking about those powerful moments of connection that defy logic but feel like love.Chris opens up about sensing her son Nate’s presence in deeply personal ways—from hearing a piano play when no one’s in the room, to a medium confirming something she never told a soul. Even the bed-jumping at 3 AM? Yeah… that happens too.Candi shares her perspective as a parent who hasn’t experienced those signs—and the grief and self-doubt that can come with the silence. Together, we explore why some people feel these connections and others don’t, and how grief and spirituality intersect in completely personal ways.Whether you’ve felt your child’s presence or you’re still waiting for a sign, this conversation is here to remind you: you’re not broken, you’re not crazy, and you’re definitely not alone.
