In this week's episode, passion takes the lead to give Cory some time for self-maintenance. She leads us through the first installment of the grief series. What is grief? What is depression? Are they the same thing? What is the impact, if any, to the person who isn't grieving? How do you show up for your friend? How do you navigate someone else's grief when you're trying to navigate your own? How do you navigate grief when it's your business partner? Get your pen and paper ready because class is in session!
