Ep 1 - Amber Jeffrey
On the first episode of OTP, I have a conversation and giggle with my friend Amber Jeffrey. Founder of the The Grief Gang podcast and Instagram page.
In this episode, Amber talks about losing her mother, Susan Valentine at a very vulnerable age. And about how that experience made her feel like "the other" amongst her peers.
One of my favourite things as a bereaved person is to connect with others and to be able to have a laugh with it as well. Amber, is one of those people. I hope you find comfort in our silliness.
