The Truth About How Men Grieve And Why It Needs to Be Heard with Jason Tuttle | 023

He spent years saving his kids’ lives. Then he lost his son – and found his voice.

Jason Tuttle was in the trenches of parenting in a way most of us can’t imagine. His two children were born with rare, complex medical needs – non-verbal, seizure-prone, and in need of constant care.

Jason became their full-time caregiver, learning to read every cue, every silence, and navigating hospital stays with the precision of a NASCAR pit crew.

Then, in 2022, Jason faced the unimaginable – the sudden loss of his 15-year-old son, Zachary. What happened next? Instead of retreating, Jason sat down, wrote a letter, and hit “send.” That letter became Letters to Zachary, now a global grief community helping men (and anyone who grieves) find a voice for their pain. 

In this powerful conversation, Jason talks about fatherhood, identity, grief, and the raw, unedited truth of what it means to love and lose – and to find purpose on the other side.

Quote:
“I didn’t want to sugarcoat grief. I wanted people to see it – sharp edges and all.”
