Sat at the comfort of his kitchen table, Joe Bellman reflects candidly upon his own journey through grief and loss. Joe invites his guests to take part in a conversation that is difficult: to share their own stories and experiences – uncensored.

It is a call to celebrate the emotions and experiences that make us feel most human.
