“What a beautiful first episode. My 95 year old mom died this past February. I have many complex feelings as I think about who she was as a person. We talked almost everyday. I miss doing that.
Love this podcast, thank you”

“Listening to just the first episode helped me connect with the many griefs I’ve hidden so deeply, as well as helped me identify many peripheral losses I’ve yet to properly grieve. The language and perspectives encased in this this very moving episode are incredibly comforting, compelling, and...”Read full review »

“I listened to season one right after we lost our baby boy and it was so helpful so I called in when Anderson invited folks to share how grief has impacted their lives. When I saw the episode The Greatest Loss come up I knew it would be difficult but one day I felt I could listen. Just a few...”Read full review »

“Their conversation about grief changed how I felt about my own grief of losing my mother 1.5 years ago. I'm cautious of if/how much I reminisce with my sister/nephew for fear of being called weak/not upsetting him. I haven't had anyone to share my grief with, not really, but I am going to...”Read full review »
