"I was supposed to have that"—the milestones, the memories, the life my child should still be living. Grief isn’t just about losing what was, it’s about losing what should have been. In this raw and unfiltered episode, we talk about the ache of seeing others live the life we were meant to have, the silent jealousy no one likes to admit, and the deep, unfillable hole left behind. This is for every grieving heart who whispers, 'That was supposed to be mine.'

People call us strong because they don’t know what else tosay. But when you’re grieving, “You’re so strong” can feel more like pressurethan comfort. In this raw episode of Grief Left Behind, we explore whatstrength really looks like after loss—the kind that isn’t about bravery, butabout survival.
This episode is for every parent, sibling, spouse, or friend who’s ever beenpraised for holding it together while quietly falling apart.
You didn’t choose this version of yourself. But you’re still here. And that… isno small thing.
If you’re tired of being told how “well” you’re handling your grief—this one’sfor you.

In this raw and honest episode, we confront the well-meaning but harmful ways people try to "fix" grieving parents. After child loss, we’re not broken—we’re forever changed. This isn’t something to be cured, solved, or silenced. It’s a lifelong grief we carry with love. Join us as we unpack what it means to be seen, not repaired—and why holding space is more powerful than trying to make the pain disappear.

This week on Grief Left Behind, we’re stepping into the fire—the kind no one talks about.
The kind that grief lights in your chest when you’ve lost a child.

This episode is about rage.
Not irritation. Not frustration. But the deep, raw, burning anger that simmers beneath heartbreak.
The kind that comes when people say the wrong thing. When the world keeps turning. When your child’s name fades from other people’s lips.

We’re naming it. Sitting in it. Letting it breathe.

Because grief isn’t always soft. Sometimes, it roars.

In this raw and vulnerable episode of Grief Left Behind, we speak the words so many grieving parents silently carry: the ache of surviving the unimaginable. This is not about wanting to die — it’s about the crushing weight of continuing to live without the child you love. We reflect on what trauma does to a parent left behind, the guilt, the longing, and the quiet bravery it takes to stay. We also honor Ethan, a remarkable young man, and his brave mother who reminded us last week just how powerful love and truth can be.

If you’ve ever felt like no one truly understands — this one’s for you.
