Episode Synopsis
Grief, Growth & the Sacred DetourLike most things in life, we started this episode headed in one direction… and then life, in all its realness, rerouted us.This was supposed to be part one of a convo on heteronormativity (don’t worry—we still owe y’all that part two). But grief had other plans. The kind of grief that shows up uninvited and remakes you from the inside out. The kind that asks you to pause, reflect, and sometimes crumble—so you can rebuild something softer, stronger, and truer.In this bonus episode, Cass & Ciarra dive deep into how grief shapes us, how it doesn’t follow a timeline, and how sacred it can become when experienced in community.We explore:✨ TikTok growth and personal wins✨ Beauty standards and skincare as ritual✨ Breakups, co-parenting, and friendship✨ And the quiet, powerful lessons grief teaches us when we let itThis conversation reminds us:🌀 Grief is not linear—it comes in waves.🤝 Community support is essential.🕊️ Grief is sacred when it’s shared, not silenced.We’re grateful to be in this with you. And we’d love to hear from you in the comments:🌱 How is grief reshaping you right now?🌿 What’s helping you hold space for healing?With tenderness,Cass + Ciarra
