Stepping Away from Work to Make Space for Grief

Grief doesn’t follow a neat timeline—and for Rebecca Feinglos, it took stepping away from her career to finally step into it. After losing both of her parents and navigating a divorce, Rebecca committed to what she calls a grieve leave—a year dedicated to processing her pain and exploring what it really means to mourn. That time turned into a movement.

In this episode, Rebecca shares how Grieve Leave was born, why she believes grief deserves intentional space, and how hosting “Sad Hours” gatherings has become a powerful way for people to show up for their emotions—and for each other. Whether you’re grieving a recent loss or still carrying something from years ago, this conversation offers both permission and possibility.
