The Grief Gang Getaway: Bali 2026 recap!

Welcome to The Father's Day ep 2026! The episode where I pass the mic to you - Grief Gang community. This episode is one of my favourite styles to do. As always each year I put a call out to TGG community to respond to a select amount of prompts to tell the story and memory of their Dad. The responses are undoubtedly moving, connecting and beautiful. You'll hear in this ep written submissions read by host Amber and verbal contributions from the community sharing about their dad in their own words.Grab a tissue, cuppa tea and a bit of chocolate. I hope this episode can provide a small glimmer of peace and comfort on an otherwise tricky day. Happy Father's Day to all your incredibly missed Daddios.Big love,Amber xJoin TGG membership hereEnquire about Grief Gang 1:1 and group circle mentoring hereBook onto a Grief Gang group circle hereInstagramTwitterFacebookYoutubeTikTokSubstackWebsiteIf this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and leave a review.

Hey gang!It's been a minute (if you don't include the random episode drops I've done!) since I've done a podcast episode. I've taken a hiatus as I often do to regroup and gather my thoughts. A lot has gone down since the last season of TGG that came to an end in July last year. I'm really happy to be bringing the podcast back and in this episode I share how it's going to look moving forward! This episode is a catch up episode as well as a little reflection on a phrase that used to speak to me and my grief and well, now longer does. I'm keen to hear your thoughts!Bits and bobs I mentioned in the episode linked below:The Grief Gang Membership Platform Friends Missing Friends community Grief Gang In Person Events CalendarSilent Disco organisers - Hush Beats Disco UK, Brighton and HoveBali 2025 recap episodeMexico 2026 tripGrief Gang Getaway Google form 2027Big love,Amber xJoin TGG membership hereEnquire about Grief Gang 1:1 and group circle mentoring hereBook onto a Grief Gang group circle hereInstagramTwitterFacebookYoutubeTikTokSubstackWebsiteIf this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and leave a review.

The Grief Gang podcast is back! It's been a minute hasn't it? To mark the return of the podcast, I thought there would be no better way than to do so with The Mother's Day episode. This is the episode where I pass the mic to you, the community. I've been doing this style of episode since the conception of Grief Gang in 2020. I took a little hiatus from 2024-2025 as life was just life-ing. But it feels really good to be back and to bring this episode back too!In this episode, I ask TGG community a set of prompts to respond to. So kindly and graciously, the community came in clutch. Sit back and listen to this wonderful community and what they've got to say this Mother's Day 2026. Thank you to all who contributed to this episode- it wouldn't exist without you truly! I am so thankful and grateful to have the honour of hearing all about your amazing mums and sharing them with the world.Here's to our mums, the legends that they are.

Well, it's been a hot minute hasn't it?! I'm absolutely delighted to be sharing part 1 of this Christmas special crossover with Amie and Alicia Fretter from If We Don't Laugh podcast.

We wanted to offer you at this tricky time of year a bit of a laugh and realness, as always!There's no overarching message for this episode, we just hope it lands with you well and helps you know you're not alone in all the whacky and wonderful thoughts and feelings in grief.

This is the finale episode of season 8! What a season it's been. I thank you all for your continuous support of the podcast! I thought about all the ways in which I wanted to end the season. But to be honest, there was no other way I wanted or could end this season other than with todays episode. Our collective, worldly, planetary grief is at an all time high and we are feeling it. The grief, violence, atrocities and genocide we are witnessing against the people of Palestine is horror beyond comprehension. We must and can use our voices, for our fellow grievers.I'll let the episode do the talking because I said all I had to in there. There will be people who will vehemently disagree with what I say and brand me as something I'm not. But, I'm completely okay with that.

I'm very excited to share this week's episode and guest with you all. Today I'm talking with friend, film producer, author and grief educator-Lizzie Pickering. Lizzie and I met back in 2022 at the UK Commission on Bereavement and haven't left each others side since. Throughout the years, Lizzie has become a dear friend and someone I admire both personally and professionally. Lizzie's relationship with grief began when her son, Harry, died aged 6 and a half after being diagnosed with a life limiting and terminal illness when he was extremely little.Throughout those years and continuing to raise her family that consisted of her two surviving children, Lizzie knew that she wanted to walk towards her grief rather than away from it. In doing so, Lizzie has gathered an extreme wealth of knowledge and compassion that has gone on to support other bereaved parents and individuals in the masses. I feel so fortunate to walk alongside Lizzie in our lines of work and what she shares in our episode today, I think you'll see why.Lizzie and I discuss in this episode the various different but recurring themes we see in our work. We wanted to showcase how common and normal they really are to help you hopefully feel less alone and perhaps more comforted. Reading Lizzie's book 'When Grief Equals Love' is a must read. You can find Lizzie and links to her book here.

I'm back after my little midseason weekly break!Today's episode is the day after my Mum's 9 year anniversary. 9 whole years of living without her in bonkers to me. I went out on a stompy grief walks to ramble about it all. In this ep I'm dishing up musings on coping mechanisms and when I learned one didn't serve me anymore. What legacy means to me and how I'm getting through this years anniversary.Apologies for the wind, nature wasn't so forgiving for this recording! Or perhaps it was my mum just messing with me!Big love,Amber xxxConnect with The Grief Gang community:Enquire about Grief Gang 1:1 and group circle mentoring hereBook onto a Grief Gang group circle hereInstagramTwitterFacebookYoutubeTikTokSubstackWebsiteIf this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and leave a review.
