Episode Synopsis

Grief doesn’t just change our circumstances—it changes us. After loss, we often find ourselves saying, “I don’t even recognize the person I’ve become.” The truth is, there’s a “you before” and a “you after,” and learning to live as the me after you is one of the hardest parts of the grief journey.In this episode of The Good Grief Podcast, we explore how loss reshapes our identity, our perspective, our relationships, and even our sense of purpose. You’ll hear about:    •    Why grief feels so disorienting.    •    The hidden “secondary losses” we often overlook.    •    How loss deepens empathy and compassion.    •    Ways grief can redirect us into new strength and purpose.If you’ve ever wondered who you are now that someone—or something—you loved is gone, this conversation is for you. You are not alone, and the “you after” still matters.
