Great news! Grief and Light™ is a finalist for the Signal Awards’ Listener’s Choice Award. And I’m in the running for Top Host to lead my own podcast produced by iHeartRadio, take home $25K, and be a guest on an episode of onairwithryan.iheart with Ryan Seacrest, BUT I need your support to get there:

Why does this matter?

We’re taught how to prepare for so many things in life, but not how to navigate arguably the most human experience of all -- grief. Grief literacy is a life-affirming skill. It helps us understand loss, support one another, and make space for the full complexity of being human.

I’m on a mission to foster a more grief-fluent, hopeful world, one conversation at a time.

Winning would help me bring this work to a much broader audience, have bigger conversations, and shift the way we talk about one of the most universal human experiences we share.

THAT would be life-changing.

Every vote helps. And if you feel called to share it, even better.

We're in this together.
Nina

The deadline is OCT 15 griefandlight.com/vote
