Can you look forward to the future when you’re grieving? Although they are from different backgrounds and lost their dads at different times in their lives, both Olivia (19) and Iman (22) have found hope among their grief and ways to look to the future. In this episode, they explore their different grief journeys but also find plenty of common ground. The conversation covers how they found strength from their grief, ways they keep their dads’ memories alive, and why they feel hopeful for what’s to come.

Content warning: mentions serious illness, cancer, and death throughout.
