When Grief Knocks Twice - Turning Pain Into Purpose with Faith Sage
In this powerful episode of Our Dead Dads, I sit down with Faith Sage, an author, artist, and podcast host, to hear her incredible journey through grief and resilience. Faith shares the heartbreaking story of losing her stepdaughter Kassondra in a tragic car accident, only to face another devastating loss years later when her granddaughter Peyton passed away in a separate accident. As she opens up about the emotional aftermath, she reflects on the complexities of grief, the weight of blame and guilt within families, and the challenges of navigating loss as a stepmother.
Throughout our conversation, Faith talks about how storytelling became a crucial part of her healing process. Writing her books and launching her own grief-focused podcast gave her an outlet to process her emotions and help others who are struggling with loss. She describes the “nothingness” she felt in the depths of grief, how she fought her way out, and why she believes in allowing yourself to fully experience the emotions that come with loss rather than suppressing them.
Faith and I also explore the importance of having open conversations about grief, especially in a society that often shies away from these topics. She shares how connection and community have been instrumental in her healing and how honoring the memory of her loved ones has given her a renewed sense of purpose. This episode is a deeply moving testament to the power of resilience, love, and finding meaning in the wake of unimaginable loss.
