When people hear the word “grief,” it’s often associated with the loss of a loved one. But grief extends far beyond that. In fact, there are more than 40 different types of grief events. Grief is the emotional response to loss—whether that’s the end of a relationship, the loss of a job, a decline in health, or so many other life changes.


The mission of The Grieving Journey Podcast is to create a safe space where stories of grief can be shared openly and honestly. I hope that by listening, you’ll feel less alone and find comfort in the reminder that healing is possible, even in the midst of pain.


I’m Angel Morel Brown, and this podcast is especially close to my heart. It is dedicated to my mother, Angela Johnson, and my father, William Brown—whose lives and legacies continue to shape the way I walk through grief and healing. Through their memory, I hope to honor not only my own journey but also the journeys of so many others who have faced loss.


On this podcast, I’ll share my own experiences with grief while also inviting others to tell their stories—the struggles, the lessons, and the ways they’ve found healing. Together, we’ll uncover the many shapes grief can take and the different paths people walk toward wholeness.


So many people are experiencing grief without even realizing it. The first step to healing is simply acknowledging that grief exists. This podcast is here to encourage that acknowledgment and to remind you that you don’t have to walk this path alone.


✨ The goal is to empower others to face grief—whether from the loss of a loved one, a relationship, health, or other life changes—with honesty, to find meaning in their journey, and to discover life beyond loss.

  • When Grief Doesn't Come with a Goodbye, with Yolanda Thorne

    When Grief Doesn't Come with a Goodbye, with Yolanda Thorne
    Dec 31 2025

    Some grief doesn’t come with a goodbye — it comes with change, uncertainty, and learning how to let go of what life used to look like.

    In this final episode of Season 3 of The Grieving Journey Podcast, Angel sits down with Yolanda Thorne for an honest and heartfelt conversation about navigating grief that isn’t tied to death, but to transitions, relationships, and identity shifts. Yolanda opens up about parenting through mental illness, grieving the life she once envisioned, and learning how to show up for herself in new ways.

    Together, they explore the quiet grief that often goes unseen — the kind rooted in unmet expectations, evolving family dynamics, and seasons that test your faith. Through vulnerability and reflection, Yolanda shares how therapy, faith, and community became anchors during moments of deep uncertainty.

    This episode is a reminder that grief doesn’t always look the same, and healing isn’t linear. Sometimes it’s about learning to hold both gratitude and loss at the same time.

    💛 Key Themes
    • Grieving change and unmet expectations
    • Parenting through emotional transitions
    • Faith, therapy, and emotional resilience
    • Releasing what no longer serves you
    • Redefining healing and strength

  • Becoming Your Own Best Friend in Grief with Erika Duncan

    Becoming Your Own Best Friend in Grief with Erika Duncan
    Dec 24 2025

    Send a text

    In this powerful episode, Angel chats with Erika Duncan for an honest and deeply moving conversation about grief, faith, self-compassion, and what happens when life asks more of you than you feel able to give.

    Erika shares the three defining “stops” of her grieving journey: surviving her husband’s life-altering stroke, navigating the sudden loss of her sister, and losing her father just years later. She opens up about caregiver grief, survivor’s guilt, and the moment when she realized she had been pushing through pain she never fully allowed herself to feel — until her body and spirit could no longer carry it.

    Throughout the conversation, Erika reflects on how self-compassion became the turning point in her healing. Not self-care. Not pushing forward. But learning to slow down, trust God, and ask herself the grounding question: What do I need right now? She also shares how faith, therapy, and community support helped her rebuild when “the wheels fell off.”

    Together, Angel and Erika explore the reality that grief is not linear, emotions need motion, and healing requires permission — permission to feel, to rest, to receive support, and to be human. As Angel reflects, Erika’s words echo a familiar truth: you need to feel to heal.

    This episode is a reminder that strength doesn’t come from holding everything together, grief doesn’t follow a checklist, and self-compassion isn’t selfish — it’s sacred.

    💛 Key Themes

    Survivor and caregiver grief
    Sudden and cumulative loss
    Faith and trusting God through unanswered questions
    Self-compassion as a healing practice
    Therapy and mental health awareness
    The importance of community and support
    Why grief is not linear and emotions need motion

    In this powerful episode, Angel sits down with Malcolm, a respected Detroit DJ, for an honest conversation about grief, mental health, faith, and what it really means to heal.

    Malcolm opens up about experiencing multiple losses over time, losing his mother suddenly, navigating grief in silence, and how therapy became a turning point in his life. He shares how learning to slow down, focus on small daily goals, reconnect with faith, and create a new normal helped him move forward without minimizing the pain.

    Together, they explore how grief shows up differently for men, the importance of safe spaces, the power of community, and why healing isn’t about “getting over” loss — it’s about learning how to live alongside it.

    This episode is a reminder that strength doesn’t require silence, healing isn’t linear, and giving yourself grace is part of the journey.
