What “It Is What It Is” Was Hiding

"I'm so sorry about your parents." "Thanks. It's okay." The response comes quickly, even when nothing about the loss feels okay. Sometimes "it is what it is" expresses acceptance. Sometimes it protects a boundary or saves us from explaining our grief in a place that …
A photograph you cannot explain. A question from your child. A small detail about your own life that only your mother or father would have known. In this episode of Unparented, Robert DelFave explores what happens when the people who remembered your early life are no longer available to answer your…
You organize the family gathering, check on everyone else, and show up when you're needed. But when someone asks what you need, you aren't sure how to answer.

Eleven years later, she lost her dad. She's been living in grief for over a decade and has learned that the only way…
This week, I'm sitting down with Sylvia Wolfer, a grief-informed practitioner who has experienced loss on a level that's hard to wrap your head around. She lost her father at seven. Her younger brother at 17. Her older brother at 40. And then her mother a few years later. From a family of six, only…

Caring for the Parent Who Never Cared

This week, I'm sitting down with Arnold, a former corporate executive turned brain fitness coach, to talk about what it means to grow up in a home where love wasn't really on the table. His father was a military officer who brought command and control into every corner of family life. His mother, n…
