427. The Stories Nobody Dares to Tell
38:46||Season 7, Ep. 427In this episode, I sit down with Dina Gachman to explore her experience of profound loss after the deaths of her mother and sister. We discuss how grief reshaped her life and inspired her memoir, "So Sorry for Your Loss." Dina shares the realities of grieving two very different losses—one anticipated, one sudden—and how rituals, family connections, spirituality, and even food played a role in her healing journey. We also talk about cultural differences around death, the comfort of shared memories, and ways to support others through mourning. Join us as we navigate the challenges of grief, the questions it raises, and the importance of community and self-compassion.
