I had a great conversation with Cleo on her use of poetry to navigate her grief over the loss of her mother to Alzheimer’s at only 28 years old. You can find Cleo here:

Cleo Childs is releasing her spoken word poetry album "Moving With" on May 15th. This album will be the culmination of two and a half years of writing about the journey of grief she experienced after losing her mom to Alzheimer's when she was 28 years old. Her mother was an English major in college and her grandmother, who is also one of her editors, was an English teacher for 30 years so she came by her grief processing tool of writing poetry naturally. With this spoken word poetry album, she hopes to show the path her grief took from having her mother, losing her mother, and the peace and acceptance she feels now. She also hopes to give an authentic and honest look at what her grief felt like so other people going through grief don't feel alone and feel community in their grief.
