The Boy the World Should Have Known

In this deeply personal and unfiltered first full episode of Grief Left Behind, Kalah opens her heart to share the story of her son, Eli — a vibrant, kind, funny, and creative 12-year-old boy whose life was cut tragically short by suicide.

This is where grief began. But more importantly, this is where Eli’s story lives on.

Through raw memories and aching truths, Kalah paints a portrait of the boy the world should have known — not just the way he died, but the way he lived. His laughter, his quirks, his heart. This episode is a tribute, a heartbreak, and a beginning — because before we can talk about grief, we have to talk about the love that came first.

Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussion of child loss, suicide, and trauma. Please listen with care.
