Joy and Grief Touch the Same Part of the Heart (Part 1): Our Parents and Humor with Erin Lim and Angela Tabora

Breathing Wind Podcast

Jun 19, 2022

"…you have to find the humor. If it's not in their death, it's maybe something in their life.”

Erin Lim

“My dad used to say that laughter is the best medicine…. I feel like it balances you out as well because you can't have the grief without the joy.”

Angela Tabora

This episode is part of a Breathing Wind miniseries titled Grief and Humor, co-hosted by Dara Kosberg and Sarah Davis. The Grief and Humor miniseries explores how humor allows people to get closer to their grief, explore it and better understand it, by creating a gateway into the hard feelings.

In this episode, Dara and Sarah talk with Erin Lim and Angela Tabora, co hosts of Bitch Talk Podcast, about their dads’ humor, grief and humor, and humorous movies that remind them of their loved ones who passed away.

Discussion about this podcast

Breathing Wind

Breathing Wind is a podcast about grief and loss and how we journey with these lifelong companions.

Naila Francis, grief coach, writer and former journalist and Sarah Davis, podcast consultant, speaker and writer, are cohosts. We offer warm, honest and insightful conversations for the introspective at heart.

Launched in 2019 as a personal grief project, the podcast struck a chord with listeners looking for a space to feel less alone in their grief. Quickly, a dedicated community grew around the candid and compelling conversations with others who knew grief just as intimately and those who offered guidance for navigating this universal human experience.

In its three seasons of publishing monthly episodes, Breathing Wind has become a trusted space to explore who we become and how we make meaning in the midst of our post-loss lives. It's also the place where joy, laughter, wonder and possibility co-exist alongside deep heartbreak.
