  • Summary

  • Welcome to "griefsense," a bi-weekly podcast for creatives who are grievers. I'm your host, Mimi Gonzalez, guiding you through discussions about life, death, and 'grief sense,' a unique perspective born from my personal loss and confrontation with mortality.

    Send us a Text Message.

    Have you ever felt like you just want to give up? Well, don't because we need you. Your breakthrough is right around the corner!

    Hey griefsense fam! Today, it’s just me sharing some big updates and life changes, and I’d love your thoughts. After wrestling with mental health challenges and nearly giving up, I’ve just won a startup pitch competition, which is a huge boost for our mission at griefsense. Amidst this, I've reconnected with my birth father's family, including meeting my grandfather who's now facing terminal illness. It's been a whirlwind of emotions, but these experiences are fueling my dedication to building griefsense and planning our largest event yet, the Grief Sala Fest. Stay tuned, and I hope to see you there!

    Donate to The Grief Sala Fest to help make it a reality!

    what's up griefsense familia? Come chill with me and motivational speaker, mental health advocate, combat sports athlete, and mindset and performance coach Na Eun "Jiggy" Yoon as we explore the deep connections between grief, identity, and resilience. Today, Jiggy opens up about her role as a leading voice in the LGBTQ+ community and the youth mental health space, sharing insights from her personal healing and grieving journey.

    Throughout the episode, Jiggy opens up about the painful loss of both her parents and how this profound grief influenced her life's path and her advocacy for youth mental health. We dive deep into the misconceptions surrounding hustle culture, emphasizing that true resilience often requires stepping back to embrace rest and self-compassion.

    The conversation also touches on #griefsense—a nuanced awareness born from deep loss, which can transform our appreciation for life. We also reflect on the power of 'glimmers,' those small yet impactful moments of positivity that can light up our day. Have you heard of glimmers before? How does this show up in your life?

    Tune in to hear how Jiggy navigates the complexities of loss and identity, finding peace and purpose in authenticity and the legacy left behind by her parents.
