I'll confess, I believe the topic of this episode may be long overdue. While I've touched upon this idea in previous episodes, I sense it's time for it to stand on its own. The reason is simple: I believe an increasing number of people may not fully grasp this straightforward fact—it's okay to not be okay.

As human beings navigating the journey of grief, there are moments when we simply have to acknowledge and embrace the reality that we're not okay. Feeling emotions and allowing ourselves to experience the depth of our feelings is an integral part of our humanity.

This episode aims to delve into the notion that, as humans, we often hold onto the belief that we must always project strength. However, I contend that this belief might be doing us a disservice to our collective ability to progress through the grieving process.
