About this listen

Welcome to the Life With Grief Podcast!

I'm your host and Grief & Soul Purpose Coach, Tara Accardo. I created Life With Grief and this community to normalize the complexities of grief, navigate life after loss, feel inspired along the way, and so much more.

Consider this your safe space where you feel seen, validated, and supported. I'm in this with you as a fellow griever who lost both parents to cancer before I turned 30 (six months apart, no less), lost my fur baby less than a year later, and experienced a traumatic birth. I'm here to walk this path with you as we we work together and dig into how to live a fulfilling, vibrant life with grief in tow.


I warmly invite you to tap into the world of healing with me and some truly incredible guests as you take in guidance, support, tangible coping tools, and uplifting conversations to help you cultivate a more meaningful, intentional existence.

Be sure you're subscribed for laughs, life lessons, and everything in between... even beyond the grief, life is so much more than what we've lost, too.

  • 192. Navigating Relationship Changes & Outgrowing Friendships After Loss
    Feb 9 2026

    Send us a text

    Grief doesn’t just change how you feel, it often changes your relationships, too. After losing someone you love (or after any loss, really), friendships, family dynamics, and romantic relationships can start to shift. You may feel misunderstood, unsupported, or emotionally unsafe sharing your grief. And for many grievers, this can feel like a secondary loss layered on top of the first.

    Join me in talking about the very real experience of outgrowing relationships after loss, why it happens, and how to navigate the complicated emotions that can come with relationship changes during grief.

    We chat about:
    ✨ Why grief naturally changes identity, emotional needs, and connection
    ✨ How loss can shift friendships, family relationships, and partnerships
    ✨ Signs you may be outgrowing a relationship after losing a loved one
    ✨ Why some people struggle to show up for grief in meaningful ways
    ✨ How to set compassionate, healthy boundaries while grieving
    ✨ Navigating the grief of losing or redefining relationships
    ✨ Finding safe, supportive connections while learning to live with loss

    This episode is for you if:
    💛 You feel misunderstood or unsupported in your grief
    💛 Your relationships have changed after a loss
    💛 You feel guilt or confusion about needing different support
    💛 You’re navigating loneliness or identity shifts after loss
    💛 You’re craving deeper, more emotionally safe connections

    If you’ve ever felt alone in your grief, struggled with friends who don’t understand, or wondered why certain relationships feel different after loss, this conversation will help you feel seen and supported.

  • BONUS: 5-Minute Grief Talk: When Grief Changes Your Identity
    Feb 5 2026

    Send us a text

    Grief doesn’t just break your heart, it literally changes who you are.

    In this heartfelt 5-Minute Grief Talk (in honor of my 35th birthday!), I’m sharing a truth that so many grievers quietly wrestle with: the way loss reshapes your identity. The moment you realize you don’t feel like the same person anymore. The disorientation of trying to understand who you are now after everything you’ve lost.

    We talk about:
    ❤️‍🩹 How grief changes your sense of self
    ❤️‍🩹Why wanting to “go back” is so common (and so painful)
    ❤️‍🩹 Grieving the person you were before loss
    ❤️‍🩹 The identity shift that happens after loving and losing deeply
    ❤️‍🩹 How to gently rebuild who you are—without rushing clarity

    If you’ve been feeling disconnected from your old self, pressured to return to who you used to be, or stuck in that in-between space of becoming… this episode is for you.

    Remember: grief didn’t erase you, it expanded you ✨

    🎧 Listen, breathe, and let yourself meet the version of you that’s still unfolding. Be sure you're subscribed on YouTube so you don't miss more conversations like this!

  • 191. 5 Life-changing Lessons at 35: Grief, Growth, and Living With Intention
    Feb 2 2026

    Send us a text

    In this birthday episode of Life With Grief, I’m sharing five life lessons I’m still actively practicing as I turn 35! Lessons grief, age, motherhood, and lived experience have etched into me over time. These are things rooted in identity shifts, discernment, presence, and learning how to live a full life while carrying loss.

    I’ve realized that I’ve gone through many deaths and rebirths in my life—once when my parents died, again when I became a mother, and in quieter ways as I continue to evolve into the truest version of myself.

    We'll dig into:
    ✨ Reflections on grief, identity shifts, and personal growth
    ✨ What it means to build a legacy beyond achievements
    ✨ How loss reshapes our relationship with time, presence, and purpose
    ✨ Why slowing down can be one of the most powerful choices we make

    This episode is also an invitation to reflect on the footprint you’re leaving behind—not based on what you do, but how you do it.

    I also share a special birthday announcement: the launch of my new Substack, Life Beyond Grief! It's a space for the life that continues after everything changes. Not life without grief, but a life that keeps unfolding anyway.
