The Unspoken Door

When death comes knocking, it opens a door we never asked to walk through. In this episode of Dear Cassie, I reflect on the loss of my mother and the unspoken realities of grief—the messy emotions of anger, guilt, confusion, numbness, and sadness that come in waves.

I share how death can reshape you, gave me a voice I didn’t know I had, and changed the way I connect with others. Nearly 28 years later, I’m still healing, still finding meaning, and still keeping her memory alive.

If you’re grieving, I want you to know: you are not alone. Healing doesn’t happen overnight, but together, we can walk through the unspoken door with hope, love, and purpose.
