What do you say when someone asks if you have any siblings, or what your parents do for work, and the truth is, they’ve died? In this episode, we explore the quiet but painful moments when loss collides with small talk. Skylar shares personal reflections on the tension between telling the truth and protecting yourself, the awkwardness of unexpected grief conversations, and the invisible weight behind seemingly simple questions.
