I think at some point in the immediate aftermath of my sister's death, a little story or an article popped up on my phone in my news feed about strange rituals of grief and grieving from around the world and from the past, and as I started reading those articles, I realized just how much I was lacking rituals, lacking tools for processing what I was experiencing.
Imagine facing the loss of a grandmother, enduring three miscarriages, and then losing a sister, all within a short span of time. That's the heartbreaking reality for Amanda Held Opelt, who shares her deeply personal journey in this episode of 'Anchored by the Sword'. Hosted by Gina Fox, this conversation dives into Amanda's experiences with grief and how she found solace through various rituals and the support of her community.
