About the Author

Sally Douglas and Imogen Carn are co-hosts of the podcast Good Mourning and creators of the Instagram account @goodmourningpodcast.


Sally and Imogen met at a grief support event after both suddenly losing their mothers only months apart. They instantly bonded, finding healing through their connection.


Struck by the lack of resources that spoke about grief in an honest yet uplifting way, Sal and Im launched Good Mourning in September 2020. Their fresh take and authentic experience quickly resonated, growing into an online community of more than 100,000 fellow grievers worldwide.


In addition to their work on Good Mourning, Sally is a life coach and senior communications consultant and Im has worked on some of Australia's leading reality television shows as well as caring for her four-year-old daughter.
