Amira
When Sarah started the Grief Gratitude & Greatness podcast about 6 years ago, people asked why she was embarking on a project about grief. During the podcast’s run, she was asked about her own personal grief story, and realized that while she was helping other people tell their stories, she ended up sharing little of her own.
This week we share the first of three intimate conversations with people close to Sarah. In today’s episode, Sarah speaks with her sister, Amira, discussing grief related to their family's immigrant experience and the very different ways that they grieve the death of their mother.
