This week on Here After with Megan Devine:
New Year’s Eve and the Math of Suffering
The end of the year is always a flurry of resolutions and “next year will be even better!” sentiments. It’s kind of hard to look forward to the future with – all of everything – still going on. In part two of my conversation with historian, author, and queen of awkward conversations, @katecbowler, we face the new year together.
Bonus: Kate shares what she wishes doctors would tell their patients about grief.
