This Is What Grief Taught Me

About this episode

The episode explores the various layers of grief and how it impacts personal growth and identity.

Grief isn’t always about losing someone to death. Sometimes, it’s about letting go of a version of yourself, a relationship, a dream, or a future that no longer exists. In this solo episode, I share the layers of grief I’ve lived through—from losing my mom at 13, to becoming a mom myself, to the painful distance from my chronically ill father. I talk about how grief doesn’t just disappear—it changes us, stretches us, and sometimes even teaches us. Whether you’re grieving someone, something, or a part of yourself, I hope this episode reminds you: you’re not alone, and it’s okay to feel it all. https://www.instagram.com/brickbreakerspodcast/ https://www.youtube.com/@brickbreakerspodcast
