My best friend passed away last month and I’ve been struggling with my grief process. I was looking for a podcast to try to help. From start to finish I felt like Ty knew me. I was able to relate and her words have helped so much. Thank you

“
I love her breakdown on boundaries. I am going through a lot of new transitions. I find myself setting up boundaries so I have time to do work, strategize, and prioritize self care. If you don’t set those boundaries people will fit you in where it’s convenient for them.

I have never felt so validated in. My. Life. I’m in tears at work I’ve listened to your book multiple times and just found your podcast and I relate so much to losing my mother, I’m 25 years old and lost my mom when I was 23.
