Grief During the Holidays with Omi Valdi...

My Cultura and iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

This episode is so special because I get to celebrate and grief my mother with my best friend Omi, who also griefs her own mother as well. Together we share our experiences and have a very vulnerable open conversation, with the help of some tequila and questions from our friends who have never gone through grief. This podcast is a safe space and hope our vulnerability is not taken incorrectly.
