Jess kicks things off by sharing her own experiences with grief, stemming from the tragic loss of her father when she was just a child. Her father, a police officer, was killed in the line of duty, leaving her with a lifetime of reminders and a unique relationship with grief.
Jess explains how, over time, she has found moments of gratitude within her grief, seeing it as proof of the deep love she had for her father.

Haley talks about writing letters to her unborn child as a way to capture those precious moments and feelings that might otherwise be lost. The discussion highlights the importance of preserving memories and being present in the moment, whether through videos, photos, or simply spending quality time with loved ones.
The episode also touches on the different forms of grief, including grieving relationships that never were or could have been. Dave shares his experience of meeting his brother at age 13 and the bittersweet feelings that come with imagining what their relationship could have been like if they had grown up together. This episode is a poignant reminder that while grief is an inevitable part of life, it can also lead to profound connections and moments of beauty.
It encourages you to embrace your grief, cherish your memories, and find comfort in the love that remains. Why not take a moment to listen and reflect on your own experiences with grief? You might find solace in knowing you're not alone on this journey.
