The Lost Love Stories
The Lost Love Stories is a sacred space for the real, raw, and remarkable stories of love—especially the ones we don’t often tell. Here, we honor the beauty and complexity of relationships, not just through the lens of romance, but in all its forms: from spouses and friends to siblings and children.
Each episode captures the full spectrum of love—its tenderness, its trials, and even its annoyances—while giving voice to the truths that are often left unsaid after loss. Because when someone dies, we tend to speak only in reverent whispers, forgetting the funny, frustrating, and deeply human moments that made them unforgettable.
This podcast is a chronicle of connection, a place to preserve memories, and a gentle guide on the journey back to joy after heartbreak. Whether you’re newly grieving or years into life after loss, The Lost Love Stories invites you to feel, to remember, and to heal—one story at a time.

The Lost Love Stories with Anne & Ted: Grief, Friendship, and What We Miss About Everyday Loss
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of The Lost Love Stories, I sit down with Anne Keeton—a certified Grief Recovery Specialist and someone who has deeply impacted my own journey—to talk about her best friend, Ted.
Their relationship was deeply connected, honest, and full of laughter—what Anne describes as one of the “cleanest” friendships she’s ever had.
When Ted was diagnosed with cancer, Anne stepped into a unique caregiving role, walking alongside him through a year-and-a-half journey that would ultimately end in loss.
But this conversation goes far beyond that loss.
Anne shares powerful insight into what grief actually is—and how it shows up in ways most of us don’t recognize. From unmet expectations to everyday life transitions, grief is often much broader than we think.
We talk about:
- Why time alone doesn’t heal grief
- How unresolved grief builds over time
- And the idea that staying in pain is not the same as honoring someone we love
This episode is thoughtful, honest, and incredibly helpful—whether you’ve lost someone or are carrying something you haven’t quite been able to name.
Because grief isn’t just something we experience once…
it’s something we learn how to move through.
