Dealing With Loss

The Hidden Egg: Season 4, Episode 6

Losing someone — or something — we are close to is a ubiquitous experience. Every single person understands to some degree what it’s like to grieve loss. However, it’s not as common to share those experiences. Talking about grief with people that don’t understand can be difficult; and discussing it at all can prove to be a challenging “downer.”

When vulnerability is the overarching topic, grief is inevitably going to come up. Today’s episode covered the theme of loss; not just as grief, but also as the fear of losing something. 

This episode’s shout-outs proved difficult, as we’d found so many fantastic articles to choose from. So we kept them all:

• The Camping Fappening: A Saga With My Stall Neighbor by The Sturg

• What if the Aliens Think We’re Dinosaurs? by Ben Ulansey

• The Camera Never Lies? Who Are They Kidding?! by Christala Rosina

• The Bestest Boy by Ute Luppertz 💫

• The 10 Most ‘Totally Traumatizing’ PG-Rated Movies That Generation X Watched as Kids by Paco Taylor

For the main discussion, we covered these three articles:

1. Grieving Pets by Ute Luppertz 💫

2. Losing My Mom One Memory at A Time by Darren Weir

3. My Summer Seaside Sting by Molly Davies

🌟Special thanks to Ben Ulansey and The Sturg for their thoughts and comments throughout the episode.
