This week we're debunking the bullshit idea that you're supposed to "get over it" from losing someone you love. Spoiler: you don't get over it. You move on AND you move forward, and there's a huge difference.

We talk about the pressure to be "better" by now, the people who tried to rush our grief, and why acceptance doesn't mean you've gotten over it. Aleksei shares how being with someone who didn't do the work pushed her to find support groups full of people who actually get it.

We dive into the tsunami parable about how grief is a wave you have to swim through not run from, and discuss finding "the gift" in loss without toxic positivity bullshit.

Plus: the importance of finding a therapist who matches your vibe, integrating your loss into real life, honoring your person with memorial jewelry, and the will to live when everything feels impossible.

Your grief timeline is yours. Anyone who fucks with it can fuck right off. 🎙️💙

🧠 November is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month - let's keep the conversation going.
