Asking for a Friend

In case you didn't know, we're still making episodes that are available exclusively on Nora's Substack! - When romantic relationships end, there’s usually a clean cut – a moment, a conversation, an argument that ends things for good. When friendships dissolve, the break is usually way less clear, if it’s clear at all. You can catch up with TTFA on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook using @ttfapodcast. Nora's Instagram is @noraborealis. Read the episode transcript here. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's (still) Okay To Laugh (and crying is still cool, too)

It has been 10 years since Nora’s first book, “It’s Okay to Laugh (Crying Is Cool Too)” was published. A lot has changed since – she got remarried, had another child, and started this podcast to carve a space in the world for conversations that really matter. In honor of IOTL’s 10th birthday, today Nora is reading the two chapters out loud and live annotating – connecting with the person she was six months after her husband’s and father’s death, miscarrying a baby, and desperately trying to stay afloat.

The Widower (Girl, run)

Every once and a while, we get an email that Nora just can’t resist making an entire episode about. This week’s subject is dating a widower – but is she really? It seems like the connection is fading fast. Relationships are complicated, and sometimes, we all need a little tough love to remind us what we’re worth.

Normalize “bad women” with Rebecca Woolf

Being a widow is complicated. On top of the earth-shattering grief you experience, there’s a huge societal pressure to be the perfect image of a grieving partner, missing the love of your life. But what if the person who died was actually kind of a huge jerk? How do you take care of someone who doesn’t really deserve it? And what does it mean to be a good woman or a good widow?

What Do People Do All Day?

In this first episode of the newest installment of Thanks for Asking, Nora hears from three callers who explain what they actually do all day at work. And even though they’re wildly different – a regenerative agriculture performance and data reporting manager, an oncology nurse working with phase one clinical trials for cancer patients, and someone who works at a yarn store – each one brings a unique and interesting story.

On this episode of IGTBO, Nora is joined by her favorite living novelist, Catherine Newman, to put a little more OK in your day.

Getting Married Again Doesn’t Make You A Bad Widow with Leslie Harter-Berg

I get questions all the time about being a remarried widow. How did I do it? How did I know? Is Matthew jealous of Aaron? How can you love two people at the same time? When you become a widow, you’re a widow forever. You will never not have a dead spouse. You will never stop wishing you could talk to them again. You will never replace that love. But that doesn’t mean you can’t find love – or yourself – all over again. Today, I’m joined by fellow remarried widow Leslie Harter-Berg to talk about becoming a widow, getting remarried, and sharing our best advice for all the widows searching for answers out there. You can find Leslie on Instagram here and her Substack here. Watch us on YouTube here! Get this episode ad-free here! Listen to Geoffrey’s album on Spotify and Apple! Check out Nora’s Instagram here!

“It’s Going To Be OK” is a hard thing to believe given the state of, oh, everything. Many things are, in fact, not going to be okay at all. But on the advice of a wise therapist, we’re on a quest to find one okay thing about every day. Each morning, we bring you a short story, essay, or interview about one thing that makes us — or our guests — feel like it might not all be so bad ... even if some things are. Join us every morning to start your day with the opposite of a doom scroll. And share your okay thing by leaving us a voicemail at 612-568-4441 or by emailing IGTBO@feelingsand.co.
