Unspoken Grief: Steph and Beth's Personal Stories

I think there are socially acceptable griefs when someone, I think an easy, an easy go-to for understanding someone going through grief is when you know a grandparent passes away. Um, I think those are very um like acceptable forms of going through grief.
Grief is a universal experience, yet it often feels like a lonely journey. In this episode of 'Discovering Our Scars', Steph and Beth open up about their own encounters with loss and the complexities of grieving. Beth shares the poignant anniversaries of her brother's and neighbor's deaths, while Steph reflects on losing her grandparents during the pandemic. These personal stories offer a raw look at how grief shapes us, especially during such challenging times.
The hosts also discuss how the pandemic has added layers of collective grief, affecting us all in different ways. They touch on the stages of grief and emphasize the importance of processing these emotions rather than bottling them up. With a mix of empathy and honesty, Steph and Beth encourage listeners to talk more openly about their own grief, fostering a sense of community and understanding.
This episode is a heartfelt reminder that while grief is deeply personal, sharing our stories can help us heal together.
