Episode 3

Grief With Wi-Fi

Published on: 26th June, 2025

đź–¤ Episode Summary:

Grief doesn’t ask for permission, and it definitely doesn’t care if your Wi-Fi is still connected. In this raw and reflective episode, I open up about the recent loss of my father—and what it means to grieve in real-time while still showing up for life, motherhood, marriage, and the million tabs open in my brain.

We talk about how grief doesn’t just knock you down—it tries to live with you. I share what it’s been like navigating pain in a world that never pauses, and the strange tension between needing stillness and having notifications that just keep coming.

If you’ve ever had to keep moving while your heart was breaking, this one’s for you.


✨ In this episode:

• The shock of losing someone while life keeps scrolling

• Parenting through pain

• The guilt of logging off when everyone else is still logged on

• Why grief doesn’t have a timeline (and neither should healing)

• Permission to fall apart—even if only in airplane mode


đź§  Therapy Thought:

You can be high-functioning and heartbroken. Let both be true.


💬 Let’s Talk About It:

Has grief ever hit you when you didn’t have time to process it?
