Sneaky Grief - The Losses That Linger, the Systems That Ignore Them

·23 min·2 clips

Leslie Poston shares how the death of her first love decades later left her 'completely undone' and disrupted her work.

Host Leslie Poston explores 'sneaky grief'—the disenfranchised, unacknowledged losses that linger without social validation, from pet deaths to first loves lost decades later. She examines the psychological and physiological impacts of grief, critiques how capitalism minimizes mourning, and shares research on how society invalidates certain types of pain while offering validation for those experiencing hidden sorrow.
