Jill Bialosky on Grief, Memory, & the Lives Our Mothers Lived (EP40)

Jill Bialosky on Grief, Memory, & the Lives Our Mothers Lived (EP40)

In this deeply reflective episode, acclaimed poet and author Jill Bialosky joins us to share the heart behind her newest memoir, The End Is the Beginning: A Personal History of My Mother. Unlike traditional memoirs or self-help books, Jill’s latest work offers a poetic, emotionally rich narrative told in reverse—from her mother’s death to her birth—unfolding a tender portrait of a woman shaped by love, loss, faith, and resilience. In this episode, Jill reflects on writing through grief, the unbreakable bond between mothers and daughters, and how memory shapes identity. A powerful listen for anyone navigating loss, caregiving, or the quiet beauty of remembrance.
