Early-onset orphans Sarah Beth Bassak & Clarissa Thibeaux sift through the ashes of abandonment and parental loss by highlighting the humorous, bewildering, and often turbulent nature of the grieving process.
Welcome to our very first guest of the new year: Kathy Selim (insta: @lovekathyxo)! Kathy is the owner of Private Party Agency (insta: @prvtprtyagency) and was kind enough to talk to us about the grieving process she has been through after the loss of her beloved mother (it's our first half-orphan, listeners!). Tune in and hear all about how these real life happenings are never anything like they are in the movies!

The Twelve Days of Grief-Mas PART 1
This week we are bringing it back to basics with a set of solo-episodes. We present you a two-part, two week special counting down our Twelve Days of Grief-mas (yeah, we did that). We're gonna talk about some of the specific experiences that come with grief and orphan-hood (12 of them, actually...but maybe a few more because, you know, we get talking). We wish you a very happy holidays and please, pat yourself on the back for all you've made it through. You are remarkable. And you are not alone.

Here We Come a Wallowing
This week's episode features fantastic friend of the pod and fellow orphan Kate Orsini. Kate is a born story teller (which is why we are so thankful she is an actor and a writer) and listening to her talk about her family's experience with grief, loss and mental health issues is one you'll want to hear. We had a few technical difficulties (it was our first time and we did our best) but stick with us and enjoy! ----more---- Instagram: @abandonmentissuespod Twitter: @abandonmentpod

You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grief.
In this episode, we have the pleasure of talking with fellow orphan, actor and Brit: Dionne Neish (@bustybloom). Despite having had our parental loss experiences on opposite sides of the ocean, there was much common ground about the moving through, how we now embrace living differently and the irritability of grief. Grab a cuppa. And let's get into it. ----more---- Instagram: @abandonmentissuespod Twitter: @abandonmentpod Dionne Neish Socials: Instagram/Twitter - @bustybloom
