First Year of Grief Club is a book that can be given as a gift right when you experience loss. But it can also be the first year that you choose to experiment within your grief and get to know yourself. I have been working on a limited podcast series that kind of does a deeper dive off each of the experiments I offer with an expert.
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!
