Welcome to the Don't Get Weird About It podcast where we talk about death and how it affects those that keep on living. A weekly podcast interviewing those who have experienced varying degrees of loss. Each week will focus on a new person, a new experience and a new journey of surviving the never-ending tide of grief. Hopefully, it will make people feel less uncomfortable talking about a subject that affects us all. With an open mind, a compassionate heart and a heavy dose of sarcasm... let's talk, just don't get weird about it.
Today’s episode of Don’t Get Weird About It was recorded back in September with Emily’s best friend since fifth grade, Taylor Devota. The two discuss the death of Taylor’s father that occurred in a whirlwind just over five years ago. They also reflect on what it was like to lean on each other while navigating Emily’s loss as a pre-teen and how that experience impacted their views on the grief process today. Today’s discussion speaks to not becoming a victim of your situation, staying true to the authenticity of your friendships, and continuing to move forward because it’s truly the only option.
