Grief, Love and Pets

Hey there,

Recently, I wrote some stories about what it’s like to love a dog with your whole heart, to lose them, and then choose to love again anyways.

I got to share some of those stories on an episode of Earthworm Slumber Party, a podcast that feels like a cozy story sesh for your inner child.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed with anxiety at the thought of losing a pet.

Or blamed your childhood self for not saving them.

If you’ve longed to fall apart but couldn’t.

Or wished there were a way to say goodbye that felt sacred.

This episode is for you.

Fair warning: this one might open the floodgates. Grab your tissue box, a favorite stuffy, and some electrolytes before you hit play!

GRIEF GUIDANCE

Mutual Aid Request

I heard some troubling news about one of the Earthworm Slumber Party co-hosts, Opulence Abundance, and I’d love for us to come together and support them.

Not only were they a victim of a hate crime during their birthday celebration with their QTBIPOC friends in late May, but their home recently flooded AND they're dealing with employment loss.

You can support Opulence in one of two ways:

Hiring them! They offer trainings on conflict navigation and de-escalation. They speak publicly about authenticity and finding inner peace. Lastly, they offer groundings and somatic stress release sessions for groups. Here's a recent training they did, and you can book a time to chat with them here.
Donate to them directly via Venmo: @kamalraja

In warmth and light,
