Cariad Lloyd: Talking About Grief Changed My Life

Cariad Lloyd: Talking About Grief Changed My Life

Cariad Lloyd never set out to become the voice of modern grief, but after losing her father at just fifteen, the silence around death stayed with her. In this episode of Full Disclosure, James O’Brien speaks with the actor, comedian and creator of Griefcast podcast about how turning her personal loss into public conversation has transformed both her life and others'.

Together they explore the tension between comedy and sorrow, the strange rituals of mourning, and why so many of us feel unequipped to talk about death. Cariad shares the moments that shaped her, the people she’s never forgotten, and how the making of her book You Are Not Alone helped her say what so many struggle to find words for.

Poignant, funny, and gently radical, Cariad reflects on love, loss, and learning to hold space for the chaos of being human.
