4 | Breaking the Silence – How to Be Loud About Loss in a World That Wants You to Move On

Grief doesn’t come with an expiration date, and yet the world often expects us to move on long before we’re ready. In this episode of Loud About Loss, we’re diving deep into what it means to speak up about grief, challenge the awkward silence around child loss, and boldly share our stories—no matter how uncomfortable it makes others.

In this episode, we cover:

✅ Why society is so uncomfortable with grief (and how to change the conversation)

✅ The pressure to "move on" and why that’s complete nonsense

✅ How to respond to the well-meaning (but frustrating) grief police

✅ The power of sharing your story—even when people want you to stay quiet

✅ Practical ways to be LOUD about loss without feeling exhausted

✅ Dealing with trolls, unsolicited advice, and insensitive comments

If you’ve ever been made to feel like you should “get over it,” this episode is for you. Grief doesn’t shrink to make others comfortable, and neither should you.
