About Grief is a Sneaky Bitch
Grief is a Sneaky Bitch creator and host Lisa Keefauver is on a mission to reimagine grief one conversation at a time, helping us to center aliveness in a world full of loss. Yes, this is a podcast all about grief. Since 2019, Lisa and her guests have been exploring the expansiveness and pervasiveness of grief in our lives. Let's face it: 100% of us experience grief, multiple times in our lives. Lisa witnessed it time and time again in her career as a social worker and in her personal life—most significantly when she lost her husband in 2011. More recently, she experienced ambiguous grief while navigating breast cancer in 2024. And yet, individually and collectively, we're so grief-illiterate, and that's causing us all harm. So she's on a mission to reimagine grief so we can center aliveness in a world full of loss. She's so glad you're joining us. She brings her deep curiosity, love of conversation, and knowledge of how language and culture shape our experiences of ourselves and our world (including our grief) to each unscripted conversation. From thought leaders, CEOs, and social workers to authors, educators, researchers, filmmakers, and spiritual leaders, her guests open up about the complexity, confusion, and even confidence they've gained by navigating a grief journey of their own. About Host Lisa Keefauver is equal parts heart & humor (with a judicious use of cussing.
