Listen "171. Let's Honor Sibling Loss with Annie Sklaver Orenstein"
Episode Synopsis
"This grief is so hard because we cannot control it."
We’ve all experienced something unique in our grief stories, but when it comes to sibling loss, there are some aspects even the experts don’t understand.
Sibling loss is a woefully underrepresented area of grief support, so when Annie Sklaver Orenstein lost her big brother, Ben, she realized her work as a qualitative researcher could be a great gift to the community of sibling loss survivors.
Her book, "Always a Sibling: The Forgotten Mourner’s Guide to Grief" is a masterclass in self-awareness and cultivating the type of support you need through the loss of a sibling (and anyone else, of course).
