Breaking Bad Communication

Why We’re So Bad at Grief and How to Show Up Better

Episode Summary

In this episode, I sit down with grief specialist Karen Jones to talk about something we all experience but almost nobody knows how to navigate—grief. Whether it’s the loss of a family member, a relationship, a pet, or even a version of yourself… grief is grief. And most of us have no idea how to process it, let alone how to talk to someone who’s grieving. Karen breaks down why we get so awkward, say the wrong things, or avoid the conversation altogether—and how we can actually show up with compassion instead of clichés. She shares simple, powerful truths about healing, feeling the emotions you’ve buried, and supporting others without being, well… an unhelpful human.
