Oct 20, 2023

We journey alongside grief survivor Mike Nappa, who graciously opens his heart, sharing his profoundly moving journey of loss and healing after the death of his wife, Amy. His personal revelations on the terrain of grief and his granddaughter's own journey awaken a broader understanding of the grieving process and the importance of allowing ourselves the space to grieve.

 

Our conversation is intimate as Mike recounts the cherished moments of helping his wife fulfill her bucket list. His account underscores the significance of living fully even when faced with loss, a testament to the enduring power of love. Mike's reflections amplify the importance of cherishing our time with loved ones, making each moment count, and recognizing that grief can coexist with joy and acceptance. 

 

Poignant, enlightening, and deeply human, this episode offers solace and understanding while reassuring us all that grieving is a natural response to love, and experiencing all the emotions that come with it is perfectly okay. Listen in as we traverse the emotional landscape of grief and loss together.
