What's your earliest memory of grief in you family of origin? In this episode we talk about the way that grief passes down through generations, through the culture grief that is created in our families. We consider the ways that the grief of our parents and caregivers has an impact on us, just as the grief of their parents and caregivers had an impact on them. We talk a little bit about our own family grief histories, and offer some food for thought when reflecting on your own intergenerational grief.
