For Margaret, everything started when her mother passed. A few months after that, her brother Julian was killed in a motorcycle accident. This event made Margaret develop an understanding of everything surrounding death and grief from a completely different perspective. She now runs the Good Grief AUSTRALIA website - https://good-grief.com.au/ which helps others understand their grief journey.

In this week's episode, I am sharing Margaret and Julian’s story, what she considers the grief bubble and how that affected her grief journey, what was like for Margaret moving forward and coming out of the grief bubble after Julian’s funeral, how she navigated the relationships after losing her brother and so much more.
