MENGENAI EPISOD INI
Grief doesn't follow a calendar, but life still does. Birthdays, anniversaries, holidays: they keep showing up, whether you're ready or not.
This week Aisha Thomas, widow and author of The Widow's Truth, talks about what she calls the "calendar of landmines": the firsts, the bittersweet milestones, the dates tied to your person, and the old losses that resurface without warning.
You'll hear why every Father's Day, Aisha sends her kids photos of themselves with their dad, even ones they've seen before, and why her kids say it never gets old. She also shares the one thing she believes friends and family can do that matters most: remember the date. If a hard date is coming up for you or someone you love, this conversation offers real, gentle ways through it.
