My Mom Died

Gabri Segui

Grief is messy, awkward, and sometimes weirdly funny, and no one tells you what to do when it happens to you. After losing her mom in 2022, Gabri Segui created the show she couldn’t find: an honest, unfiltered space to talk about death, healing, and everything in between. Whether you're crying in the cereal aisle, laughing at old voicemails, or just trying to survive another first without them, this show is for you. Through solo reflections and candid conversations with guests, My Mom Died helps you feel less alone in your grief; one story at a time. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  1. Four Years Without My Mom. Here Is What I Know Now.

    Four Years Without My Mom. Here Is What I Know Now.

    Four years ago today, Gabri lost her mom, Jennifer. In this episode, she is not bringing a guest, a framework, or a list of tips. She is sitting down and telling you exactly what four years of grief actually looks and feels like from the inside. Gabri walks through the four stages she has lived: year one, she survived, year two she unraveled, year three she rebuilt, and year four she carries. She talks about what has permanently changed in her, how she talks about her mom differently now, and the small things she still misses most, including the specific way her mom said her name. She also speaks directly to anyone stepping into their first year of grief with something she wishes someone had told her: what you are feeling is not failure. It is a reaction to a separation you did not agree to. And eventually, if you let it, grief can become a superpower. This episode also includes a note that My Mom Died will be taking a short break from releasing episodes. Follow on social media to stay connected in the meantime. If you are in the middle of your grief right now and cannot see the other side, this episode is for you. 💜 Stay Connected Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mymomdiedpodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mymomdiedpod 🎥 Watch on YouTube Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@MyMomDiedPodcast 📬 Join the Community Sign up for the newsletter and be the first to know about new episodes and live events: https://mailchi.mp/179400ef58c5/my-mom-died 🕊️ Share Your Story Have a story about grief or healing you’d like to share?

  2. My Boss Said This To Me During My Performance Review After My Mom Died

    My Boss Said This To Me During My Performance Review After My Mom Died

    In this episode of My Mom Died, Gabri is joined by her best friend, Kelli Martin, for a full reaction episode. Kelli lost her dad, Scotty, at just 11 years old and is 12 years into her grief journey, making her the perfect co-pilot for this one. A few weeks ago, Gabri asked her community to share the most unhinged things people ever said to them while grieving. The comments came pouring in. In this episode, they read them out loud and react in real time, and nothing is off limits. From "everything happens for a reason" to "you've really changed since your mom died" (said during an actual performance review), to a priest calling grieving siblings orphans mid-funeral, to a librarian asking for overdue books back at a viewing, the stories are absurd, painful, and somehow also hilarious. Gabri and Kelli break down why these phrases land so wrong, what people actually mean when they say them, and why grace has to go both ways. If you have ever been on the receiving end of a completely out-of-pocket grief comment, this episode is going to feel extremely validating. 💜 Stay Connected Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mymomdiedpodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mymomdiedpod 🎥 Watch on YouTube Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@MyMomDiedPodcast 📬 Join the Community Sign up for the newsletter and be the first to know about new episodes and live events: https://mailchi.mp/179400ef58c5/my-mom-died 🕊️ Share Your Story Have a story about grief or healing you’d like to share?

  3. Will It Feel Like This Forever? The Truth About Early Grief

    Will It Feel Like This Forever? The Truth About Early Grief

    In this episode of My Mom Died, Gabri speaks directly to people in the earliest stage of grief, the hours and days right after a loss when everything feels surreal, time is distorted, and the body goes into shock. She describes what early grief can feel like, including numbness, brain fog, waves of emotion, and the fear that this intensity will last forever. Gabri keeps it practical. She explains that there is no correct way to respond, that the goal is simply to get through the next few minutes or hours, and that early grief can be unpredictable. She also shares a short survival checklist for the newly bereaved: drink water, sleep when possible, accept practical help, and try not to isolate. If someone just sent this episode to a person who is newly bereaved, it is meant to be a foundation, not a lecture. If listening is too hard today, it is okay to come back later.  💜 Stay Connected Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mymomdiedpodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mymomdiedpod 🎥 Watch on YouTube Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@MyMomDiedPodcast 📬 Join the Community Sign up for the newsletter and be the first to know about new episodes and live events: https://mailchi.mp/179400ef58c5/my-mom-died 🕊️ Share Your Story Have a story about grief or healing you’d like to share?
