Interview with author Bethany Harvey

Death Is Hilarious

Today my guest is Bethany Harvey, author of Dipped in It, a book where she explores the unpredictable spiral of grief after unexpectedly losing her father and openly shares the heartbreaking, gritty and unexpectedly hilarious insights that surface.
In this episode:
How intending to write daily gratitude posts turned into being vulnerable, honest, and funny as opposed to relentlessly positive
Grief is not just being sad, we weave in and out of so many emotions
How humor is a part of grief and how often those who haven’t experienced loss can’t quite wrap their heads around that (it has to do with absurdity and relief)
Why we feel drawn to share on social media
Feeling guilty about not being anything but positive and grateful
Thinking about Coolio during the funeral
