The Grieving Girl
Description
Hey friends!Welcome to The Grieving Girl Podcast. I'm Bonnie, your host—a millennial who embarked on the challenging journey of grief at the tender age of 14, when I lost my dad to liver failure. Later on, I faced another heart-wrenching loss when my mom suddenly and traumatically passed away when I was 32.In the aftermath, I scoured the podcast landscape, searching for something that would speak to the unique challenges and emotions I was experiencing—both in the practical realm of handling her estate and in the depths of my heart, mourning the sudden and traumatic loss of my best friend.Frustratingly, I couldn't find that podcast, so I decided to create it myself. Welcome to my world—a place where we embrace the messy, complicated, and sometimes absurd aspects of grief. Together, we'll explore the rollercoaster of emotions, share stories, and shed light on what it's like to pick up the pieces of life after such profound loss.In Season One of The Grievin
