Episodes 1 & 2
Death and grief are two things that every human will encounter in their life, yet we don’t talk about them. Instead, as we grow up, we are taught useful things like how to read Shakespeare, the types of triangles and how to play Hot Cross Buns on the recorder. We aren’t taught about the grief we will feel after a loved one dies, or what to say to a grieving friend. Death and grief don’t have to be scary or uncomfortable, so let’s start talking!
