Good Mourning Grief Podcast

Good Mourning is changing the way we think and talk about grief, one honest conversation at a time. ✨

Grief affects us all at some stage, but it’s not always easy to talk about. The Good Mourning podcast, hosted by Sally Douglas and Imogen Carn, is hoping to change that by creating a modern platform to openly discuss what loss is like, with honesty and humour. Both in our early thirties, we lost our mums unexpectedly within the last year, joining “The Club” that nobody wants to be part of. It was

through this shared experience that we became friends, and this podcast was born. We want to shine a light on what grief is like, by interviewing interesting people to hear how the experience has shaped their lives. We’ll cover it all: the highs, lows...and the funny bits in between. The aim of this podcast is to open up the conversation around grief and provide comfort for others who’ve experienced loss, or be a helpful resource for those supporting someone who is going through a difficult time. Together, we can make the topic of grief a little less awkward. You can follow the Good Mourning Podcast on Instagram at , or drop us a line at [email protected].

When anxiety takes over, how do you bring yourself back to the present?

The magic of this practice is its simplicity. Anxiety often traps us in “what ifs” and “should haves,” but the 5-4-3-2-1 technique pulls us out of our heads and anchors us in the here and now.

It might feel a bit clunky the first time you try it, but don’t worry – this is about progress, not perfection. For Sal, it became a mini ritual during those heavy, foggy days of early grief. And for Im, it turned into a way to self-soothe when the noise in her mind was just too loud.

Give it a go. It might not fix everything, but it can give you a moment of peace – a tiny step toward feeling grounded again. And in grief or anxiety, sometimes a moment is all you need to keep going. 💛

Have you tried this technique before? What works for you?

A message for the supporters this Christmas...

This holiday season, your kindness matters more than you know.

For someone you know, this might be their first Christmas without a loved one, or their last. While it’s a time of joy for many, it can also be a season of quiet sorrow.

If you’re supporting someone through a tough holiday season, remember:

💛 Kindness speaks volumes. Small gestures like a thoughtful message or a warm invite can make a world of difference.
💛 Listen more than you speak. Sometimes, just holding space for their emotions is the greatest comfort.
💛 Be patient and present. Grief doesn’t follow a timeline, and your steady presence matters.

This time of year can bring up complex emotions for many. By showing love, compassion, and understanding, you can be the light someone needs.

Because sometimes, the most meaningful gifts can’t be wrapped – they’re felt.

Drop a 😴 if you’re feeling TIRED AF at this time of year…

Lately, we’ve been hearing from so many in our community that this time of year feels like a lot. December has a way of making everything pile up, doesn’t it?

Work deadlines, family commitments, Christmas planning (or not), and all the emotional baggage we’re already carrying – it can feel never-ending.

Processing emotions, let alone everything else we have to do in a day, can leave you feeling stretched thin. That’s why protecting your energy – and being mindful of how you spend it – is so important.

Enter: the energy budget. 💡

Imagine starting the day with 100 coins. Every task or interaction “costs” you energy. Big tasks might use 50 coins, smaller ones just a few. By the end of the day, where are you left? Empty? Or thriving?

We try and preserve our energy by:

✨ Batch tasks like meal prep to reduce daily decision fatigue.
✨ Turn off notifications to minimise distractions.
✨ Practise the art of pausing before committing to something.

We talk more about this in our book, but the key is this: protect your energy for the things that truly matter.
Where will you spend your coins today?

A little reminder for anyone who needs to hear this today. 🫶

It’s one of our absolute faves from our affirmation card deck. We like affirmations for tough days because they’re a bit like workouts for your mind.

Just like repetitive exercises strengthen your body, repeating positive affirmations can rewire your thinking patterns, helping you to think and act differently over time.

We hope it helps you wherever you’re at today. ❤️

P.S. If you like this, our affirmations cards are currently 20% off until Sunday. just type “CODE” in the comments and our AI besties will DM it to you with a discount code. xx

When everything feels hard, do you look for tiny bits of good?✨

We do and we LOVE this idea. Why? Because noticing what’s still good (no matter how small) can shift our perspective, even just a little, and help us build resilience.

Writing down three good things is something we do regularly. And before you think ‘it’s too hard’, hear us out – it doesn’t have to be profound. Some days, it’s things like:

Had a decent cuppa
Saw a cute dog
Got sent a hilarious meme

These tiny moments? They matter. They’re a reminder that even in the hardest days, there’s still something worth holding onto.

So, what’s one good thing that’s happened to you lately?

Don’t you hate that!? 😅

Have ever felt like someone was trying to “one-up” your grief? You know, like they’re subtly competing or trying to make their loss seem more significant than yours?

It might sound surprising, but it’s actually a lot more common than you might think! In fact, it’s something we dive into in our book ‘Good Mourning: Honest Conversations About Grief and Loss’. It’s a topic that many people don’t talk about, but so many of us experience it - feeling like our grief is being minimised or overshadowed.

If this resonates with you, you’re definitely not alone. ❤️

16/11/2024

Are you having a whispery or roaring grief day today?

13/11/2024

Put your car keys in the washing machine? 🤪 Cried in the office toilet? Left your person a voice note? 😭

In a world that doesn’t see your grief, we do. Let’s share the griefiest things that have happened this week. Drop it in the comments. ⬇️

We hope that reading about others’ experiences helps you feel less alone. Remember, there’s incredible power in connecting with those who understand your grief. 🫶

Lessons I've learned after my loss…can you relate to any? 💔 Sal here. Guys, I am FEELING it this week. It's my birthday on Friday, and my mum is constantly on my mind. Birthdays always get me more than death-a-versaries, actually. I think it is because of the mother-daughter connection and the fact she brought me into this world. So it feels bizarre to celebrate another lap around the sun without her, you know? Even though it's my fifth birthday without her, it still stings. And I always wish I could spend one more day with her. Or just be able to pick up the phone and have a natter. But I can't. So, while I have a gazillion lessons my loss has taught me, here are some that are helping me this week when it all feels a tad heavy: 👉 Grief can be so exhausting, especially around milestones. Go slow. Give yourself the gift of kindness if you can't get stuff done at the same speed. It's okay. 👉 Try and embrace moments of fun where you can. Totes fine if you can't right now, too. 👉 If you don't have many videos like me, cherish the ones you do. 👉 Hug the people you care about as much as you can and want to. What about you? What would you add to this list? . . . #griefsupport #griefandloss #griefquote #griefresource

Every griever needs to hear this! 🤍✨ Today's guest is the social media star and palliative care nurse Hadley Vlahos (aka @nurse.hadley), who shares her fascinating insights into end-of-life care. She recounts experiences where patients have seen their deceased loved ones, how these encounters have deeply influenced her belief in the afterlife, and the profound impact of these moments on both patients and caregivers. Hadley's personal journey, marked by a significant death that reshaped her religious beliefs, is the inspiration behind her book, The Inbetween. In it, she shares how end-of-life care can teach us valuable lessons about living, demonstrating the transformative power of confronting mortality. It's a must-listen and you can find this episode via the link below. 🎧 ✨ https://buff.ly/4cT84MB #grief #palliativecare #hospicecare #griefandloss #goodmourning #nursehadley
