The Search for Sid
Note sull'episodio
This week on The Grieving Girl Podcast, Bonnie sits down with Ethan Blauner — a former colleague from her Switch Playground NYC days — to share a powerful story of love, loss, and resilience.
When Ethan’s dad traveled alone to Israel at the start of the war, Ethan followed into the chaos to search for him. What began as a desperate hunt ended in heartbreak.
In this raw and moving conversation, Ethan opens up about the emotional toll of that search, the moment grief hit hardest, and how he's turning pain into purpose. From opening the gym they dreamed of, to founding the Dead Dad Run Club, to finding unexpected healing through music — this episode is about surviving loss and carrying love forward.
