EPISODE 23: THE GRIEF OF JOY | JESSIMAE PELUSO
Dying Laughing with Jessimae
This episode explores what happens when joy and grief collide. In a week marked by devastating headlines including the mass shooting in Bondi and the loss of cultural icon Rob Reiner, Jessimae found herself coming off one of the most joyful comedy weekends of her career, and sitting with an uncomfortable question:
Am I allowed to feel good right now?
The Grief of Joy is a grounded, honest reflection on emotional whiplash, collective grief, and the guilt that can come with happiness during hard times. Jessimae unpacks why laughter isn’t denial or disrespect, but a vital form of regulation and survival and how learning to hold both sorrow and joy is part of emotional adulthood.
This episode is about honoring loss without shrinking joy, and allowing relief to exist without apology when the world feels heavy.
