GRIEFBULLY EP:16 "MY FATHER MADE ME INVISIBLE"

The Devinwade Network

In this deeply moving episode of The Grief Bully podcast, host J.Nicole reconnects with her former schoolmate Jessica Kirkland to discuss the profound and multifaceted nature of her grief. Jessica bravely shares her story of losing her brother and the emotional turmoil of living just a few doors down from her father, who at one point, went almost 10 years without speaking to her. The pain of trying to communicate with him, only to be met with silence, added to her grief. Jessica reflects on how this strained relationship affected her social life as a teen. Struggling to balance her pain, she found it hard to foster friendships and was often judged for her perceived unkindness. In reality, she was deeply hurt and unable to manage her emotions and social life. Now that she and her father are speaking again, Jessica shares her journey of healing and understanding. Join us for an honest and raw conversation about coping with loss, navigating estrangement, and finding the strength to keep going.
