Returning Home After Losing My Dad🕊️

About this episode

Bella shares her personal experience of losing her dad to Alzheimer's and the journey of grief and healing.

This episode’s personal. I’m talking about losing my dad to Alzheimer’s. What it felt like watching someone you love disappear slowly… while still trying to hold everything together. I talk about his funeral. The grief that hit after. And what it meant to go back to Puerto Rico for the first time in 30 years to say goodbye. It’s not a clean story. It’s not tied in a bow. But it’s honest. And if you’ve ever lost someone, or you’re in the middle of it now... I hope this reminds you: you’re not crazy, you’re not broken, and you’re not alone. Grab your coffee. We’re talking grief, grace, and what it means to heal, one day at a time.
