When someone asks, "How are you?" do you freeze, fumble, or fake a smile? In this episode, I share 20 ways to respond to that loaded question while grieving—sorted from most to least personal.

You'll learn:

  • How to protect your grief without hiding it

  • When it's okay to say "I'm fine"

  • Four types of responses for different social situations

  • Why honesty isn't all-or-nothing in grief
