Welcome to "Grief City," where the population may feel like one, but in reality, millions of us live here. I'm Newella, and having experienced the tragic loss of my father, I understand the deep emotions that grief brings.

Welcome to a space where you are understood.
Welcome to "Grief City".
Every loss is different. But something I didn’t fully understand until this last year is how a new loss can make an old one feel fresh again.There’s this compounded grief that can happen where you’re grieving what’s right in front of you, while also being pulled back into the pain of someone you lost years ago. So many things become triggers, and sometimes it’s hard to even know what you’re sad about because it all starts to blend together.In this episode, I’m sharing about the heartbreak of losing my mother-in-law, how it has brought so much of my grief around losing my dad back to the surface, and what it’s been like to navigate grief that suddenly feels incredibly fresh again.--------No one should have to navigate loss alone.

Unprocessed Grief | Grief City
What happens when grief goes unprocessed?
In this episode, I’m talking about a part of grief that I don’t think we talk about enough: what happens when the pain we’re carrying starts spilling onto the people around us.
After my stepfather-in-law suffered a stroke, I found myself face-to-face with parts of my dad’s death that I thought I had already processed. Watching someone I love survive something that took my dad’s life brought up jealousy, anger, guilt and some emotions that were honestly really hard for me to admit.
Eventually, I realized those emotions weren’t staying contained inside of me. They were affecting the person I loved most.
This episode is a very honest conversation about unprocessed grief, taking ownership of our healing, and learning that two things can be true at once: your grief deserves to be felt, and you still have a responsibility for what you do with it.
Healing doesn’t mean we stop grieving. But I do believe healing requires our participation.
And sometimes, choosing to process our grief is one of the ways we learn to show up better for the people we love.

Processing Grief: What it Looked Like | Grief City
I talk a lot about “processing grief,” but I realized that phrase can feel a little vague. Everyone processes loss differently, and I’m not here to tell you there’s only one right way to do it.
In this episode, I share what processing loss has personally looked and felt like for me, along with what it may look like in your own grief journey.
