Summary
I’m joined by Jamie Stone, blogger at honestlyjamie.com and host of the “A Little Too Much” podcast. Jamie opens up about losing her younger sister in 2016 and her dad in 2019 and how it’s impacted her life, dating journey, relationships, and friendships. We discuss why we’re afraid to talk about death, how you lose friends during the grieving process, how her losses amplified her fear of abandonment, bonding with someone else who has experienced loss like this, what to say when it comes up on dates, and how you should respond if someone tells you they’ve lost a loved one.
