"Disconnected- Why Waiting on a Smartphone Matters"

The Phone Call That Changed Everything… Losing a Parent Young

Losing a parent in your 20s changes everything. In this episode, I share my personal experience of grieving my dad while navigating college, relationships, and adulthood. From the first phone call to becoming a caregiver, to losing him just months before graduation—this is a story of heartbreak, resilience, and healing. We explore the emotional impact of grief, how to cope while balancing responsibilities, and what it means to grow through loss. If you’re grieving or supporting someone who is, this episode is for you. You are not alone 🤍 Love, Deana Instagram: Host: @deanka_k_ @life_growthwithdeana Podcast: @158pod
