      <title>Zach Braff's Advice for When Life Falls Apart</title>
      <description>Zach Braff knows grief - and he's learned to find the light in it. In this raw and unexpectedly funny conversation, Amanda sits down with her longtime friend to talk about losing his father, Hal, processing pain through his films (A Good Person, Clean Hands), and the moment his hard-of-hearing dad shouted "How do you spell aneurysm?" in the ICU - and the whole family broke into laughter.

Zach opens up about channeling sadness into art, the advice Bobby Cannavale gave him when his career stalled ("Bro, move on. It's what we do."),  and his "throw the kitchen sink at it" method for crawling out of a dark season. If you're grieving, struggling, or just need permission to laugh through the hard stuff, this one's for you.

      <title>Divorce, Miscarriage, and Reinventing Your Life with Anna Kloots</title>
      <description>In this episode of Good Grief, we sit down with my sister Anna Kloots for one of the most honest conversations we've had. Anna is a writer and travel influencer known for her blog Travel Outside The Box and her book My Own Magic, and she's spent the last few years rebuilding her life more than once-  first through a devastating divorce that sent her all the way to Paris to start over, and more recently through the heartbreak of a miscarriage.

We talk about how our parents shaped the way we process emotion, why Anna's therapy session revealing her ex-husband wanted a divorce became one of the most traumatic moments of her life, and what gave her the courage to move to Paris with five suitcases and not a single person she knew. We also get into the grief no one prepares you for - miscarriage - and the well-meaning but painful comments Anna received afterward, plus what actually helped her get through it: writing, walking, and simply being acknowledged.

This conversation is proof that grief doesn't just knock you down - it can force you to rebuild a life you didn't even know you wanted.

      <title>The Six Things Grief Taught Me</title>
      <description>We're kicking off Good Grief with the episode Amanda has wanted to make for six years - and it's the one closest to her heart. In this solo premiere, Amanda opens up about losing her husband, Nick Cordero, at 41 after a 95-day battle with COVID, and what it's really meant to grieve him while becoming a mom, moving across the country, and starting over in Los Angeles.



We talk a lot about grief being heavy - but Amanda's here to make the case that grief can also be good. Over the past six years, she's gone from hating grief and pushing it away, to calling it her roommate, and eventually, her friend. 



This isn't a podcast about staying stuck in sadness. It's about building a community where we can laugh, ask questions, stay curious, and find joy again - together. Every episode will open with a question from you, our community, answered from two perspectives.



Grief is love. And if love is beautiful, maybe grief can be too.
