What happens when you're grieving before the loss even comes? In this heartfelt episode, we explore anticipatory grief, the quiet loneliness of long-term caregiving, and the emotional spiral that can come when you feel like no one fully understands. Even with support, it's possible to feel alone—and it's okay to name that. We talk about the power of acknowledging emotions, how to stop the mental spiral, and why your feelings are valid, even if they aren’t forever.

Caregiving can feel isolating, especially when grief begins before goodbye. In this emotional episode, we talk about feeling alone while surrounded by people, the weight of watching a loved one decline, and how to name the thoughts that spiral in silence. You're not alone—even if it feels like it.
