In 2014, McInerny had a miscarriage, lost her father and lost her husband, all in the span of six weeks. After that she became a reluctant grief expert and grief author. Her latest book is 鈥溾�� (Dey Street Books/2019) and she hosts the acclaimed podcast 鈥�.鈥�
McInerny joins host Anita Rao for a conversation about how her grief has evolved over the last five years and how to support those who are facing loss. Their discussion is part of The State of Things鈥� series 鈥淓mbodied: Conversations About Sex, Relationships And Your Health.鈥� McInerny will be at the first-ever at Pullen Memorial Baptist Church in Raleigh on Sunday, Oct. 27 at 1 p.m.
