In this powerful episode of Good Grief, Dr. Christine Malone welcomes Nicole Gruendl—life coach, speaker, and grieving mother—to share the heartbreaking story of losing her son, Korey. Nicole opens up about the devastating day he died, the long and painful wait for answers, and the emotional toll of navigating a flawed system with shifting medical narratives. She speaks candidly about the re-traumatization of new revelations, the strength it took to advocate for truth, and how journaling and writing became her lifeline. Nicole is now channeling her grief into purpose with her upcoming book and workbook, The Loss of My Sun, created to support mothers navigating the unimaginable. With grace and resilience, she reflects on carrying Korey's memory forward, finding meaning through connection, and her message to mothers still waiting in the dark for answers.
