Welcome back for the Season 2 opener! This week, Claire sits down with Chelsea Quint for a raw and moving conversation about a lifetime of navigating tragedy. From the early loss of her brother to the devastating suicide of her father (and a lot of other losses along the way), Chelsea shares how these profound events shaped her entire understanding of life and death.

She opens up about the survival mechanism of adopting the mindset that "everything happens for a reason," and the eventual freedom of shedding that belief to find true healing. Claire and Chelsea dive deep into the emotional burden of being constantly perceived as 'strong' and why embracing vulnerability—and the discomfort it brings—is the only path to genuine connection. A powerful episode on the life-saving significance of support systems, therapy, and giving yourself permission to grieve exactly as you are.
