Generational Grief: How Do You Understand the Pain Your Family Never Talked About?

What do we lose when we know what our parents lived through, but not how they felt while living through it? Rich reflects on his mother’s cancer, his parents’ immigration from the Dominican Republic, and his desire to understand how they processed fear, sacrifice, faith, and trauma. The conversation explores the emotional history families leave behind—and how sometimes the stories we’re looking for were preserved in songs instead of words.
