Episode Synopsis

What does an 8-year-old’s nighttime ice cream run have in common with grief? More than you’d think. In this episode, Ray shares a childhood memory of facing fear in the dark and beautifully weaves it into the emotional experience of loss. Drawing wisdom from poets Rainer Maria Rilke, Emily Dickinson, and Langston Hughes, he explores how the darkness of grief doesn’t defeat us—it trains us to see in new ways. This powerful episode invites listeners to stop resisting the night and instead, learn to walk through it with courage, patience, and hope. For anyone in mourning, this is a tender reminder: darkness doesn’t last, and the dawn is already on its way.
