Real words from listeners who have found connection and understanding in these stories of grief and healing.

“The Day After is a poignant and beautiful podcast. The hosts and their guests share personal experiences and insights into something that many people fear — dealing with loss and what happens afterwards. An excellent podcast and a tribute to all the interviewees (including the hosts) and the loved ones they share in their stories.”

“Everyone should listen to this podcast, whether or not you’ve lost someone close to you, you’ll learn so much about life, love and grief. Ash and CJ — thank you for being vulnerable and creating a safe space to talk about such a tough subject.”

— Maddi

“This is the first time I’ve written a podcast review but I felt the need to take the time — I stumbled upon this podcast while navigating my own grief journey and found episode 7, where Ashley shares her heartfelt story about saying goodbye to her beloved dog, Simba. Her words really touched me and resonated deeply, especially as I work through the loss of my English bulldog, Ramsey, who was such a rock in my life. It’s so important to find support during grief, and this podcast provides that space to hear others’ journeys and feel less alone.”
