On this episode I yarn with the creator and host of 'Our Dead Dads' podcast Nick Gaylord. After the death of Nick's father (and a healthy dose of therapy to help move through the grief, anger and all of the feels), Nick realised we weren't having enough conversations about grief and healing. So he decided to start his own podcast and have yarns about grief and loss with guests from all over the world.

Nick is motivated to continue creating a safe space for guests to share their experiences, talk about what they have learned, and how society can get better at having these challenging conversations. He emphasizes the importance of connection, and how creating space for others to share their thoughts and emotions can be such a powerful healing tool.

To hear Nick's own story, including how he tackled the combo of grief and anger towards a father who he often had a difficult relationship with, check out his intro episode here. I am such a fan of the work Nick is doing to normalise conversations about grief, loss and trauma, and I highly recommend you check out Our Dead Dads podcast- you can find it on Spotify here, on Apple podcasts here, or wherever you get your podcasts!

Check out the podcast on Instagram @ourdeaddadspod and on Facebook at Our Dead Dads Podcast. If you enjoyed this episode, and like me you're a fan of what Nick is creating, get in touch with him and let him know!
