About this listen

Behind the Confident Smile Podcast is a weekly conversation with Bianca Cotton, founder of Behind the Confident Smile, author, wife, mom, poet, and hope dealer. Join me for our season finale with Elle Davis, and I talk about a lot of firsts—love, jobs, kisses—but not this one: the first holiday after losing someone you love. In this episode, we explore what it feels like to move through a “merry” season with a heavy or tender heart. Grief during the holidays is complicated, personal, and deeply human.

Join us as we explore the space between celebration and sorrow, the quiet moments that hurt most, and simple ways to honor both your loved one and your emotions. This conversation is for anyone navigating their first holiday without someone they love—or supporting someone who is.

This episode was recorded at CAN TV Studios.
