I created this podcast because too many of us are grieving in silence, thinking something is wrong with us when really, we’ve just never been taught how to grieve.

In this opening episode, I speak directly to that feeling of confusion and overwhelm that so often shows up after loss.

If you’ve ever said to yourself, “𝐈 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐈’𝐦 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐲 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝”—𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭. You’re grieving. And that grief deserves to be named, felt, and held.

This is a gentle invitation to be with your truth. To remember that your emotions are not too much. That your grief is not a flaw—it’s a sacred response to loss.

I hope this first conversation brings you a little breath. A little permission. A little peace.

🕯️ Grief 101 is now live.

Welcome to the Grief 101 Podcast with Bernadette Pleasant

Grief isn’t a problem to solve—it’s a process to honor. I’m Bernadette Pleasant, a Certified Grief Educator, End-of-Life Doula, Sacred Grief Ritual Facilitator, and Founder of The Emotional Institute. This podcast is a refuge for anyone navigating loss in all its forms.

When I lost my mother, I entered a season of profound stillness and grief. Around that same time, I saw a heartbreaking rise in su***de among Black men. As a grandmother of Black boys, I thought, Not my babies. That moment called me into deeper service—using my voice, my rituals, and my life’s work to meet grief where it lives, especially in communities often left behind.

Each episode blends somatic tools, ancestral wisdom, practical guidance, and soulful storytelling to help you feel seen and supported. Whether you’re grieving a death, a divorce, a dream, or the quiet ache of unspoken loss, Grief 101 meets you with truth and tenderness.

You’re not too much. You’re not alone. You’re grieving—and that matters.
