"A loss event and losing what I call an anchor relationship, someone that really grounds you and helps you orient your way through life."
Ever wondered how society truly supports those grieving a loss? In this heartfelt episode of the Prison Yoga Project Podcast, Blair welcomes Joyal Mulheron, the founder of Evermore, to discuss the often-overlooked systemic failures in supporting bereaved families. Joyal shares her personal journey, including the devastating loss of her infant daughter and father, which propelled her to focus on grief and bereavement in America.
Her mission with Evermore is to advocate for systemic changes that prioritise the emotional well-being of grieving individuals and families.

The episode also delves into the community's role in providing ongoing support, sharing touching anecdotes about simple yet powerful gestures that can make a difference.
