Have you ever realized that grief comes in more flavors than fancy ice cream, and society only approves of like three of them? Welcome to our episode on the wild world of grief varieties! 🍦💔We're exploring anticipatory grief, disenfranchised grief, complex grief, and collective grief. This is your field guide to understanding different types of grief and why mourning comes with more options than a Cheesecake Factory menu—and they're all emotionally exhausting.In this grief education episode, we cover:• Anticipatory grief - When your brain starts the grieving process before anyone's actually dead• Disenfranchised grief - The losses society doesn't "approve" or validate• Complex grief - That ignores all the self-help book timelines• Collective grief - When the whole world mourns together• Cultural differences in grief - Why some communities add extra shame to an already shitty situationYou'll hear about drinking at funerals, Catholic guilt around suicide, and why understanding these types of grief matters for healing after loss.Whether you're experiencing prolonged grief, ambiguous loss, or grief that nobody acknowledges, this episode validates it. Because grief doesn't come with an instruction manual, and there's no "right way" to mourn.🧠 November is Men's Mental Health Awareness Month - Let's keep the conversation going.---💬 What type of grief resonates with you?
