Join your host Nat in a conversation with Sky, the coordinator for a local group called Death and Grief Queer Meet-Up – a place that provides cozy spaces for queer and trans community to gather in mutual grief.

In this episode, you’ll hear about Sky's personal experience with grief and death and how that lead to creating a community group that brought joy, purpose, and meaning. Sky shares their experiences around connecting others and the honor of holding space that is vulnerable.

We talk about how to show up how you really are, and how to understand grief in the body. Sky gives insights on facilitation and creating a group and the emphasis on empowering a community with tools and access to more.

Join your host Nat in a conversation with Len Allen, (my dad!) as we talk about our family's losses including Len sharing about the loss of his brother, Freddy.

In this episode, you’ll hear about multiple family deaths, and how having a strong support system can be a vital part in making it through. Len shares his experiences around family deaths and how he fills the 'missing space in his heart' with integrating the memories, stories, physical items, and mannerisms into his day-to-day life.

We talk about how loss changes when you have a group/community/family to mourn your losses and grieve together. We talk about being there for others, and how the losses we experience change us.
