Alicia Garza welcomes grief advocate and author of critically acclaimed book, Grief is Love, Marisa Renee Lee. Lee talks about how to understand grief, and shares what we can do to move through it. 

Alicia’s roundup focuses on Jerry Springer’s legacy, Kim Foxx not running for election, and Tucker Carlson’s former producer, Abby Grossberg. But, there are some things Lady loves this week, such as Serena expecting baby #2, and Missy and Chaka being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Lady Garza returns with an all new #LoveNotes about “avoiding the vortex”.
