About this listen

Life After Child Loss is a deeply personal and powerful podcast that explores the raw, unfiltered journey of grief—not just my own, but that of parents around the world who have lost a child for reasons as varied as they are heartbreaking.

This is the kind of grief many don’t understand and most shy away from. But here, we talk about it—honestly, openly, and with nothing off limits. It’s an in-depth look at what it really means to keep living after unthinkable loss.

Walk with me as I share the twists and turns, the highs and heartbreak, of learning to move beyond mere survival. Together, we’ll explore what it means to find meaning, purpose, and even joy while carrying the weight of loss—and learning to live again after I buried my son.

  • If All Things Work Together for Good...Then What About This?

    If All Things Work Together for Good...Then What About This?
    Oct 7 2025

    “If All Things Work Together for Good… Then What About This?”

    Romans 8:28 says, “All things work together for good…”

    But when your heart is broken and your faith is bruised, those words can be hard to believe. In this moving episode of Life After Child Loss: A Parent’s Grief, host Angela Snowden unpacks what this scripture really means in the midst of loss — not as comfort words, but as a living promise that even in pain, God still works.

    💭 Because not everything is good, but God still is.

  • It's OK to Not Be OK: What Pretending Does to Newly Bereaved Parents

    It's OK to Not Be OK: What Pretending Does to Newly Bereaved Parents
    Aug 29 2025

    We live in a world that expects grieving parents to “be strong” — to smile, to say “I’m fine,” to carry the unbearable with grace. But here’s the truth: pretending to be ok only buries the grief deeper.

    In this episode of Life After Child Loss: A Parent’s Grief (Season 6, Episode 3), I’m breaking the silence on what it really costs us to hide our pain, and why giving yourself permission to not be ok is one of the bravest steps you can take toward healing.

    💔 Your tears are valid.

    💔 Your sadness is holy.

    💔 You don’t have to carry it alone.

    ✨ And at the end, I’ll also share how the Grief to Grace Journal can be a safe space for your unspoken truths.
