"Even when you have the five senses going, like full, full steam, you still can have part of your consciousness in that, that subspace," she says. "I've gotten really good at never throwing anything away because the grief shield does come up and be like, I don't, you know, they're happy and they're gone."

Death is an ever-present part of life, and it comes for us all. In some way, we will experience grief and loss -- it may come from the loss of a parent, child, sibling, friend, etc. Today, I am joined by Addison Brasil. Addison is the author of First Year of Grief Club: A Gift From A Friend Who Gets It, and the former producer and co-founder of the world's first peer men's mental health app, tethr.

In this episode, Addison shares his journey to process through grief after he lost his brother to cancer, found his father after he committed suicide, and survived a fatal accident that killed a dear friend and left Addison relearning how to walk. He also talks about how to honor grief, how to feel connected and supported during loss, and much more. Tune in!
