Episode 57: Grief Before Loss: What Anticipatory Grief Actually Looks Like

In this episode, I talk about one of the most painful and unspoken parts of caregiving: grieving a parent who is still alive. I walk you through what anticipatory grief really is, why it feels so isolating, and the thoughts and emotions many caregivers are too afraid to say out loud. You'll hear why nothing is wrong with you, even if your feelings feel confusing or heavy. Most importantly, I share simple, grounded ways to help you process what you're carrying so you don't have to hold it alone.
