What if grief isn’t something to get over… but something to grow through?
In this deeply personal episode of Welcome to Your B-Side, Dr. Amy Lindsey opens up about losing her 18-year-old brother to an avalanche when she was just 10 — and how that loss shaped decades of her life, her fears, and eventually, her purpose.
Dr. Amy explores the other side of grief — the clarity, love, and purpose that emerge when we stop trying to fix our pain and start caring for it. She breaks down the difference between grief, depression, and anxiety, and offers a compassionate framework for transforming loss into a lifelong source of meaning.
Whether you’re in the rawness of acute grief or learning to integrate loss years later, this episode reminds you that grief is a superpower. When we stop running from it, grief becomes the fuel for joy, forgiveness, and deeper connection.
This is an episode about love, loss, and what it means to live fully after everything changes. Because when you learn to walk with your grief, you open the door to healing and meaning in your life.

The difference between acute grief and integrated grief
