The Whole Family Unit ft. Casey and Brady from OUR HOUSE Grief Support Center NYC

A Weekend Away ft. Ann and Carly from Camp COPE

On this episode of Grief Circle, I got to speak with Ann and Carly from Camp COPE - a bereavement weekend camp. Ann is the director and has been with the camp since its inception, and Carly is the clinical director and took on the role around 2 years ago. We got to speak about the opportunities COPE provides for children to come together with other kids in their situation and just "be kids" while also acknowledging what makes them different from other kids. It's also important to note COPE has a caregivers retreat at the same time as the kids camp, right across the river, which is great because often times guardians can be overlooked in these situations.

The Whole Family Unit ft. Casey and Brady from OUR HOUSE Grief Support Center NYC

On this episode of Grief Circle I got to speak with two representatives from OUR HOUSE Grief Support Center NYC (website linked below), Casey and Brady. The three of us got to speaking about the amazing programs that OUR HOUSE offers for not only children who have just lost someone close to them, but also family programs that focus on the adults and kids as a unit. Programs like this are rare in this world which is why the work at done here is so amazing. We also spoke about their father who passed away when they were young and how that has affected their past and future lives.

How Do We Deal with What Never Existed? ft. Shruti Trivedi

Welcome back to Grief Circle in 2026! In this episode I had the pleasure of speaking with Shruti Trivedi, a life coach who helps mothers that recently suffered a miscarriage or who lost their baby to complications. Shruti had some spectacular insights on how to help the unborn child's siblings understand what loss. Not only did she give great tips for young children who may not know what death is, she also gave some advice to mothers on how to handle this profound loss in their life.

A Philosophical View ft. Michael Cholbi

Welcome back everyone! It has been a while since I have been active and I am thrilled to be back and better than ever with guest Michael Cholbi, a philosopher at the University of Edinburgh who explores grief and the human relationship with death. On this episode we got to speak about how grief, especially in children, can be looked at through a philosophical lens. One of my favorite things we got to speak about was how grief can be considered as an "identity crisis" and of course, we got to hear some of his favorite metaphors for grief.

Grief in Pictures ft. Diane Namm

On this episode I had the pleasure of speaking to Diane Namm, a picture book author who has published countless books throughout her career. However, there is one book of hers that especially caught my eye: What Happens After? This picture book is so special because rather than serving as an instruction manual for teaching kids how to grieve, it draws from Namm's personal experience with loss and offers gentle guidance to young readers. The words beautifully capture what it means to grieve as a child, while the illustrations work alongside the text to tell the story visually.
