Episode Synopsis

Today's episode, Ghosts of Grief, is an exploration of grief , death, and the peripheral ideas that surround them. I've invited Mia Cosco, an old friend and research assistant at Harvard University to navigate these ideas. Mia specializes in helping people work through the emotion of grief, and she hosts unique events called Death Salons that are dedicated spaces to help people explore their feelings and emotions. In this episode we discuss the enigmatic nature of grief/death and the myriad of perspectives that envelop them. Death is a foundational element of life, yet it remains as a mysterious veil that we are compelled to rationalize.
