I am in no way an authority on death and grief, but it consumes my thoughts a lot. For me, reading and listening to podcasts on this topic has been comforting as I process things. Finding resources that resonate has been a bit more challenging, but here are some that I’ve turned to over the past months (thanks to family and friends who have led me to some of these).
