Send us Fan MailGrief doesn’t mean you’re broken. Sometimes it means you loved well and your heart is telling the truth. I’m Gabrielle (ZGala the Art Angel), and I’m sitting down solo to talk about a view that has been changing how I hold loss: grief as praise, a teaching I found through Martin Prechtel and his book The Smell of Rain on Dust.I share memories of Julie shortly after her passing. She once told me she wanted to change her name to “Radiance.” She never made it official, but it’s how I think of her now and how her presence felt: bright, strong, kind, and deeply influential through her work with music, children, elders, and her family. Her passing opens a wider conversation about bereavement, the grief of losing community, and why we shouldn’t rush ourselves to “get over it” or pretend it doesn’t hurt.We also explore a Mayan story about tears helping carry someone to the other side, the idea of shamans as “weepers,” and why honest mourning can be a form of healing ceremony rather than something to medicate or hide. From there, I connect grief work to emotional regulation and mental health: how suppressed feelings can fuel depression, numbness, and aggression, and how we can give emotions space without letting them run our lives. I close with the “keeping the seeds alive” metaphor and a practical invitation to savor what you love right now, while it’s here.If this resonates, listen through, share it with someone who’s grieving, and subscribe.
