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].

This feels a bit vulnerable to say, but here goes…

We’ve poured our hearts into this podcast for five years - no big budget, no fancy studio. Just two griefy women and a couple of mics, trying to make people feel less alone. ❤️

We do it because of the messages like:
💬 “This podcast saved me.”
💬 “You’ve helped me feel seen in my grief.”

But the truth? We’ve never had regular paycheques from it. And if we’re going to keep going, we need a little help too.

That’s why we’ve launched Patreon - for $3 USD / $5 AUD / £2.50 a month, you’ll get access to our exclusive supporter question thread. Each month we pick one to answer at the end of the pod.

When you become a Patreon supporter, you’re not just helping us keep the podcast going — you’re fuelling everything we do to support grievers. From free resources, to expert chats, to content that helps people feel less alone.

Here's the link to become a Patreon supporter: https://www.patreon.com/c/goodmourning

With big love and deep gratitude,
Sal and Im 💛

Which one are you this week? Defo number 2 for us 🙃

What’s something you wish people said instead of “you’re so strong”?

Because while it’s well-meaning, sometimes that phrase feels like a heavy load instead of a lifeline.

What if we said:

🫶 “I see how much you’re carrying.”
🪷 “You shouldn’t have had to be this strong.”
💬 “You deserve softness, too.”

Let’s help change the way we do grief.

It’s that time of the week again 🙃 Which one are you today?

Have you ever looked at an old version of yourself and realised you weren’t living, you were surviving?

We used to call it “fun.” And sometimes it was. But if we’re being honest, a lot of the time it was just a distraction. A way to outrun the noise in our heads. Staying busy, chasing highs, filling every gap in the day so we wouldn’t have to feel what was underneath.🙅‍♀️

A nervous system stuck in go-go-go mode is because the alternative stillness felt unsafe.

What we didn’t know then is that when your nervous system has learned the world isn’t safe (or that being still equals danger) you’ll do anything to stay in motion. Parties, overworking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, productivity - it’s all survival in disguise.

Healing doesn’t happen through more doing. It begins when we finally stop running. When we realise that slowing down isn’t laziness, it’s coming home.

Can you relate? What unhealthy coping mechanisms have shown up for you in the past?

Our final episode of our Mind-Body mini-series is here. 💫

We’re diving into how grief changes us – not just emotionally, but on a core, subconscious level. From shaken-up values to unexpected purpose, this episode is all about the transformation that can unfold through deep loss.

We’ll be talking about post-traumatic growth – what it can look like, and how it doesn’t have to be something big or profound. Sometimes, growth after loss is found in the small moments: when you start setting boundaries, saying no, or prioritising your own well-being and needs.

Whether you’re in it, moving through it, or supporting someone who is – this one’s for you.

A huge thank you to Lynsey from for sharing so much wisdon throughout this mini-series, and another big thank you to this season’s sponsor, .

We’d love your feedback on the mini-series. Did it help? Did something land? Let us know in the comments. 🙏

How has loss changed you?

Not just on the outside, but in the quiet, hidden corners of your life?

One of the wildest things about grief is that the world stays the same, but you don’t. You go from being someone known - even to yourself - to someone unrecognisable. As the incredible says, you become a stranger in familiar skin.

This post will forever remain one of the most accurate expressions of that change.

We live and die in the embrace of community. And when someone we love dies, it’s the community - those who get it - who help piece us back together, even if just for a moment.

Drop a ❤️ if this resonates with you, or share it with someone who needs to see it.

✅ Completed a 3-month intensive trauma-informed breathwork facilitation training under Australia’s leading expert,

And to celebrate, we’re hosting an intimate and transformational breathwork event in Sydney on May 31.
A powerful, safe, supportive space to breathe, release, and reconnect.
