About The Podcast:
Hey friends! Welcome to The Grieving Girl Podcast. I’m Bonnie, your host—a millennial who has been navigating grief since I was 14 when I lost my dad to liver failure. Then, when I was 32, I faced the sudden and traumatic loss of my mom, who was also my best friend.
After my mom passed, I found myself searching for a podcast that could speak to the unique, messy, and sometimes hilarious challenges of grief—the stuff you don’t always hear about. From handling her estate to coping with the emotional rollercoaster of losing my best friend, I couldn’t find a podcast that felt real enough. So, I decided to make one.
The Grieving Girl Podcast is a space where we talk about all the messy, complicated, and sometimes absurd parts of grief. There’s no perfect way to grieve, and I’m here to share stories, laughter, and a whole lot of honesty about what it really means to process loss. If you’re grieving, supporting someone who is, or just want to understand grief better, you’re in the right place.
So, whether you're here because you’re grieving, supporting someone who is, or just want to understand grief a little better, you’re not alone. Join me for a mix of stories, laughter, and real talk, as we walk this unpredictable road of grief together. Hit subscribe, and let’s get real about grief—together.
