What if grief isn’t something to be solved, but something to be inspired by?
In this episode of Without Fear: Life, Death, and Everything In Between, host Alexis Hughes gets honest (and a little funny) about what grief really looks like - from brain fog and rage to total disconnection to new hobbies we bury our grief in. Forget the tidy tears and sympathy casseroles. Grief can make you forget where you put your keys, snap at strangers, or sob while ordering Taco Bell: and guess what? That doesn’t make your grief any less real.
We’ll talk about:
- What “grief brain” really is (and why you’re not broken)
- How society expects us to be palatable while we’re in pain
- Personal stories of messy mourning: Alexis-style
- How to hold space for weird grief without shame
Because your grief is not a performance—and healing doesn’t have a script.
