DUMB THINGS PEOPLE SAY to Grievers | Everything Happens for a Reason & Setting Boundaries

Have you ever wanted to throat-punch someone for telling you "everything happens for a reason" after your person died, but settled for an awkward smile instead? Welcome to our grief cliché roast! 🔥

In this grief support episode, Aleksei and Audra are tearing apart every toxic platitude and dumb things people say to grievers. We're dissecting the worst grief advice including:

• "Everything happens for a reason"
• "They're in a better place"
• "You're so strong"
• "Just get over it"
• "Time heals all wounds"
• "God needed another angel"

Learn what NOT to say to someone grieving and what to say instead. This grief podcast episode covers setting boundaries with toxic positivity, dealing with loss, and coping with grief after losing a loved one.

But this becomes something more. Watch as two advanced grievers have a beautiful discovery moment about grief healing—realizing that while they carry scars, they've healed from their losses and relinquished guilt, shame, regret, and the unanswerable question of "why." They explore the grief journey and how to let love back into the void left behind by bereavement.

This is grief validation, real talk about mourning, and profound revelations about what healing actually looks like after loss.
