Dear Grief Guide, I Expected Grief To Feel Different

A recently bereaved father thought he would feel more after the death of his young son. Is he an emotionless monster? Or is something deeper going on? I read his anonymous letter and then offered him practical tools and compassionate wisdom for growing through grief.

Dear Grief Guide is a weekly advice podcast where I answer anonymous letters from people feeling lost, stuck, or overwhelmed in the midst of grief.
