Why the Grief Series Podcast? Why talk about grief? 

Why the Grief Series Podcast? Why talk about grief? As early as March a lot of people lost someone they held dear to them, it wasn’t until October that I too was personally and permanently affected by a death. My life changed the day I found out my dad died. Like everything else I do, I decided I wanted to find out more and share my perspective and to hear from others. That’s how the grief series started, with one podcast episode as the goal, but as I spoke with people to find that one person to interview I quickly came to understand that GRIEF was very deep.

Krystal Speed, Lost her mom to the breast in 2005 cancer. She shares her story of healing. She shares how she got through the loss, we talk about her dad’s role and why she started a non-profit.

It’s important that everyone goes through grief.
