About this listen

The first Father’s Day without my dad — when coffee and donuts became sacred.The first Father’s Day after losing my dad hit harder than I expected. He never cared much about holidays, but simple moments — coffee and donuts — became sacred once he was gone. In this episode, I reflect on that first year, when grief showed up in tears at every turn, and on how holidays shift after loss. I share why creating new traditions matters, how to honor loved ones who have passed, and the importance of being gentle with yourself as you move through grief.
