Some losses get casseroles and bereavement leave. Others get silence — and a quiet expectation to move on. In this episode, we're talking about disenfranchised grief: the losses our culture doesn't fully recognize, from miscarriage and pet loss to job loss, estrangement, and the end of relationships that were never "official." We break down why "just get over it" is one of the most damaging things we can say to someone grieving, what happens when grief has nowhere to go, and what actually helps — both in and out of the therapy room.
