Enough is Enough

Welcome back to another episode from the Grief Gang podcast.This weeks episode may be something different from what you’re used to hearing from this podcast. But nonetheless, something that needs to be addressed today and always going forward.That is racism.In the past few weeks, the band aid has been ripped off, and the world has been forced to look at what the black community deal with every single day. It’s a shame it’s taken this long, but that wound is no longer being covered up. I can only hope and pray, that now it will begin to heal.In this episode, you will hear a number of entries from the black community on what they grieve and hope for.It’s powerful. Beyond powerful. I can’t thank everyone who wrote in enough. I thank you for sharing.If you are non-black person and listen to this, use this a start for your own independent study. Not an excuse to pity your black friends or community, but recognise this as an opportunity to learn about how you contribute to the system which is racism.Take this episode and make a change. A change in your everyday life. So that podcast episodes like this no longer have to be done.Big love,Amber xSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/thegriefgang. Hosted on Acast.

Struggling with her grief and feelings, she set out to find people who just got it and to share the continuous whirlwind experience of this thing called grief.Through sharing her own experiences, the highs and the really low lows, the funny bits, the naff bits and the really confusing bits, this show aims to show you that you are never alone in your grief and feelings. Nor should you have to suffer it alone. You will hear alongside Amber's own experiences on this podcast, an array of guests who honestly & candidly share their own stories of their grief, from all different walks of life and losses. From parent, child, sibling, partner & more, there is hopefully something here for everybody.You will most likely cry, even more likely to laugh when listening to this show, but above all this show aims to provide you with hope. Hope that there is life after loss..and a bloody good one at that.The Grief Gang podcast has been celebrated by the BBC, Channel 5, Vogue, Women's Health UK & Australia and more.
