Grief doesn’t move in a straight line—and it doesn’t always soften with time.
In this deeply reflective episode, Fartumo Kusow marks the two-year anniversary of her daughter’s death and shares how the pain has not lessened, but deepened. With raw honesty, she explores what it feels like when grief returns like a storm you didn’t expect—and what to do when it settles in and takes the place where love once lived.
This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt like they “should” be doing better, only to find the ache has grown louder.
It’s a quiet, fierce reminder that time does not always heal—but presence, truth, and compassion can help us carry the weight.
