With both humor and honesty, Kurt shares how his personal history of grief—including losing his own father as a teenager—shaped the way he’s parented through unimaginable loss. We talk about how kids grieve—often saying the things adults are too afraid to admit—what it means to keep showing up even when you'd rather fall apart, and why legacy isn't just what we leave behind—it's something we live every day. Whether you’re a grieving parent, a friend supporting one, or just trying to make sense of your own grief story, Kurt’s perspective is a powerful reminder that there’s no one way through this—and you don’t have to go it alone. In this episode, we cover: The layers of grief across generations—and how they ripple forward Parenting while grieving (and the surprising things your kids might say) How Kurt’s wife, Emily, prepared a legacy of love for her children Blending grief with new love, and navigating community perceptions Showing up, breaking down, and starting again—imperfectly Resources Mentioned: Book: Atomic Habits If this episode touched you, please share it and leave us a review on Apple or Spotify 💛 Follow Grief & Grit on: Facebook , Instagram , and join the conversation on Substack…

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요In this episode of Grief & Grit , Greer and Simonie dive into a topic that every griever has faced: the well-meaning but hurtful things people say after a loss. They discuss why some common phrases — like “everything happens for a reason” or “they’re in a better place” — can feel dismissive and painful. Greer and Simonie share personal stories, including Greer’s reflections on the fourth anniversary of Jarrod’s passing. They also address the challenge of balancing grief with life’s ongoing changes and how sometimes just being present is more powerful than saying the “right” thing. Listeners will gain insight into: Why some phrases meant to comfort can feel hurtful How to be more supportive to someone experiencing loss Practical ways to “show up” without overwhelming a griever Tips for allowing space and following the lead of the person grieving Whether you’ve been on the receiving end of thoughtless comments or want to support someone going through a loss, this episode offers practical guidance and a compassionate perspective on navigating these sensitive interactions.

1 Reclaim & Reboot: Divorce, Identity, and Moving Forward with Justin Milrad 52:29
52:29 나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요52:29
나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요Grief doesn’t always stem from death. Sometimes, it’s the end of a marriage, the loss of a dream, or the shift in your identity that brings you to your knees. In this episode of Grief & Grit , we sit down with Justin Milrad, a divorce coach, father, and someone who has experienced the pain of divorce firsthand. Divorce is a kind of grief that isn’t often talked about in the same way as other losses, but it’s no less real. It's the loss of a shared dream, a future once envisioned, and a way of life that no longer exists. Justin shares his personal journey through the end of his marriage, the emotional fallout, and the ways grief showed up in his day-to-day life—from identity loss to parenting challenges. But this isn’t just a story of heartbreak. It’s a story of rebuilding. Of choosing growth, bit by bit. Of finding your footing after the foundation shifts. And of helping others do the same. Whether you’re in the thick of a breakup, standing on the other side of it, or supporting someone who’s navigating divorce, this conversation is a reminder that healing is possible—even if it’s messy, nonlinear, and full of unexpected detours. You’ll hear about practical tools, the power of perspective, and the grit it takes to reclaim joy, one tiny choice at a time. Highlighted Topics: How divorce grief mirrors death-related grief Loss of identity and family unit post-divorce Ambiguous loss: grieving a person who’s still physically present The role of radical acceptance and choosing joy Why divorce coaching is different from therapy—and why both matter Daily practices to shift from grief brain to growth brain Justin’s “3-2-1” exercise for healing and accountability Music as a surprising tool for emotional release The power of community and finding “your people” Supporting friends through divorce—what to say (and what not to) How to know when you’re ready to date again Reclaiming your story and identity after divorce Resources Mentioned: Website: reclaimandreboot.me Facebook: @ReclaimAndReboot Instagram: @reclaimandreboot.me LinkedIn: Reclaim & Reboot Divorce Coaching Learn more about Justin’s work and his upcoming book (May 2025), You 2.0 – https://reclaimandreboot.me/ If this episode touched you, please share it and leave us a review on Apple or Spotify 💛 Follow Grief & Grit on: Facebook , Instagram , and join the conversation on Substack…

Ashira, whose name means I will sing, was a force of light. She danced through life—literally and metaphorically—lifting others with her humor, confidence, and magnetic spirit. After her death, Debbie and Barry were overwhelmed by stories from Ashira’s vast circle of friends, many of whom described her as their best friend, mentor, or chosen family. Together, we explore the rawness of their grief, the rituals that bring them comfort, and the creation of Nashira , a nonprofit rooted in Ashira’s memory that helps teenage girls lead with joy, strength, and friendship. This is a conversation about the ache of absence—and the beauty of continuing someone’s song. Learn more about Nashira , the nonprofit founded in Ashira’s memory.

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요When grief hits, the last thing many of us feel ready to face is “the stuff” left behind—clothing, toiletries, papers, and memory-soaked objects that now carry the weight of absence. In this heart-opening episode, we sit down with Michelle Cooper, Certified Professional Organizer and founder of Put It There , to explore the emotional and logistical layers of decluttering after loss. Michelle shares her compassionate approach to helping clients sort through a loved one’s belongings—from the practical (where to start, what to keep, and what to release) to the deeply emotional (what it means to hold on, let go, and create space for healing). We talk about the power of control in the midst of chaos, how grief shows up in unexpected places (like a stick of deodorant), and why not every decision has to be made right away. Whether you’re facing a sudden loss, living with grief years later, or supporting someone through it, this episode offers gentle guidance, insight, and even a few laughs along the way. Decluttering isn’t just about letting go—it’s about making space for what still matters. 📦 Topics include: Where to begin when everything feels overwhelming The emotional landmines of organizing after loss Why grief isn’t linear—and neither is decluttering Sentimental items vs. everyday memories Honoring loved ones while moving forward 📍Learn more about Michelle’s work at put-it-there.com or follow her: Instagram: @put_it_there_atl Facebook 💛 If this episode resonates, please share it with someone walking through grief.
