SELLEST OSAST
Julia Robinson is not here to fit in a box — and she’s definitely not here to let widowhood be reduced to a single storyline. As an AuDHD widow, mom to a non-binary child, and someone who was in an open marriage before her husband’s death, Julia brings sharp wit, self-awareness, and zero interest in changing herself to make other people comfortable.
In this episode, she talks about navigating loss while living outside conventional expectations, what it’s like when the world wants tidy explanations for complex lives, and how she’s building a life that reflects who she actually is. Julia also tackles a topic many families whisper about: the shame that can surface when an autopsy reveals substances in a loved one’s system. She speaks candidly about reducing stigma, rejecting secrecy, and refusing to let judgment compound grief.
Also featured are cats with hilariously unhinged names, honest conversations about parenting, and a very real appreciation for limited-edition energy drinks only available in South Korea.
