My Boss Said This To Me During My Performance Review After My Mom Died

My Boss Said This To Me During My Performance Review After My Mom Died

In this episode of My Mom Died, Gabri is joined by her best friend, Kelli Martin, for a full reaction episode. Kelli lost her dad, Scotty, at just 11 years old and is 12 years into her grief journey, making her the perfect co-pilot for this one.


A few weeks ago, Gabri asked her community to share the most unhinged things people ever said to them while grieving. The comments came pouring in. In this episode, they read them out loud and react in real time, and nothing is off limits.


From "everything happens for a reason" to "you've really changed since your mom died" (said during an actual performance review), to a priest calling grieving siblings orphans mid-funeral, to a librarian asking for overdue books back at a viewing, the stories are absurd, painful, and somehow also hilarious. Gabri and Kelli break down why these phrases land so wrong, what people actually mean when they say them, and why grace has to go both ways.


If you have ever been on the receiving end of a completely out-of-pocket grief comment, this episode is going to feel extremely validating.
