Episode 13
Join your host Nat in a conversation with Len Allen, (my dad!) as we talk about our family's losses including Len sharing about the loss of his brother, Freddy.
In this episode, you’ll hear about multiple family deaths, and how having a strong support system can be a vital part in making it through. Len shares his experiences around family deaths and how he fills the 'missing space in his heart' with integrating the memories, stories, physical items, and mannerisms into his day-to-day life.
We talk about how loss changes when you have a group/community/family to mourn your losses and grieve together. We talk about being there for others, and how the losses we experience change us.
