David has learned that talking is healing, and is excited to share this free conversation with the mainstream. Joined by some very special guests, David hosts an ongoing discussion about healing from the pain of grief and trauma.


Listen as we explore ways to focus on the power of our own healing from grief, trauma, and life’s disappointments. What we resist pursues us, what we face transforms us.

Remember the last time you tried to talk about grief, only for everyone to suddenly leave the room? Grief Out Loud is opening up this often-avoided conversation because grief is hard enough without having to go through it alone. Hosted by Jana DeCristofaro and produced by Dougy Center, Grief Out Loud brings you a mix of personal stories, tips for supporting children, teens, and yourself, and interviews with professionals.

Wherever you are in the world and in your grief, I am glad you are here. I hope this is a place where you find worthwhile connections and conversations around grief. 


I know how lonely grief can feel, but talking about it and hearing the experiences of others does help. It has certainly helped me. I hope you will join me for new episodes of my podcast, All There Is.
