In this episode, we sit down with Susan Hamme, director of Grief Services at Hospice of the Western Reserve. With more than 20 years of experience. From bedside social work to leading bereavement programs across 16 counties, Susan has devoted her career to creating spaces where loss can be acknowledged and shared.
Susan helps us understand why grief is both normal and necessary, why it can feel so isolating, and how we might show up for one another in those hardest moments. She talks about the misconceptions that persist, the ways grief touches every part of life (physical, emotional, spiritual) and the surprising practices that can help people heal.
From the quiet presence of a friend on the other end of the phone to the simple act of saying a loved one’s name, Susan reminds us that resilience and connection are built not by avoiding grief, but by making space for it together.
If you're new here, this is a place for everyone to laugh, learn, heal and build. Not alone. Not perfectly. But arm in arm, heart to heart. Because we were never meant to do this alone. We are always Better Together.
