Grief doesn’t have a timeline, a roadmap, or a one-size-fits-all solution—and Grief is the New Normal is here to say that’s okay. Hosted by Dr. Heather Taylor, PsyD, a seasoned psychologist and grief educator, this podcast invites listeners to dive into real conversations about what it means to live with grief, grow through it, and still show up for life. With a mix of professional insight, personal reflections, and candid interviews, each episode tackles the complexities of grief head-on, from navigating anniversaries and holidays to understanding non-death losses and everything in between. Dr. Taylor blends warmth, humor, and a no-nonsense approach to help listeners feel seen, heard, and a little less alone. Whether you’re grieving a person, a relationship, a dream, or even an identity, Grief is the New Normal offers a compassionate space to explore it all. Tune in for honest stories, practical tools, and a reminder that your grief—and how you carry it—is valid. Available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you get your podcasts.
