Welcome to the gang, the one you never asked to be part of.The Grief Gang podcast was born from heartbreak but thrives on connection. Created by host Amber Jeffrey after the unexpected loss of her mother at just 19, this show dives headfirst into the messy, confusing, and sometimes even humorous world of grief. Amber started this journey to find people who “just get it” and to share the ever-changing experience of living with loss.Through raw and relatable storytelling, Amber shares her highs, lows, and everything in between—the funny, the frustrating, and the downright overwhelming. Alongside her own journey, the podcast features guests from all walks of life, opening up about their grief—be it the loss of a parent, child, sibling, partner, or others close to their hearts. This isn’t just a podcast; it’s a reminder that you’re never alone in your feelings and never have to face grief alone.Expect to cry, laugh (a lot), and walk away with hope—hope that life after loss isn’t just possible but can be extraordinary.Celebrated by the likes of BBC, Channel 5, Vogue, and Women’s Health UK & Australia, The Grief Gang has become a global voice in breaking the silence around grief. Amber’s dedication to this mission has seen her deliver talks, panel discussions, and workshops at institutions like Cambridge and Oxford University, Westminster, and corporations such as Apple and Starbucks.Follow The Grief Gang to join a community where no feeling is too big, and no grief story is too small.📱 Find us on Instagram, Facebook, and Substack. 🌐 Visit our website for more and find ways to work with Amber through 1:1 and group grief mentoring today“Open and honest… Amber navigates the conversation around grief so truthfully.
