Good Grief with Amanda Kloots

by Dear Media

How can our hardest chapters teach us how to live? Good Grief, hosted by Emmy-nominated television host, fitness entrepreneur, bestselling author, and widow, Amanda Kloots, is a heartfelt exploration into what happens after life changes forever. Through conversations with celebrities, experts, and everyday people, Amanda takes a look at the many forms of grief we experience: the loss of a loved one, a marriage, a career, a dream, or even a sense of home. These vulnerable and uplifting conversations invite guests to share how they navigated their hardest chapters and found a way to move forward: not by leaving grief behind, but instead by carrying it with them in a new way.  Amanda also shares the life-changing lessons she learned after the loss of her husband in 2020. Join Amanda and her guests as they share their “Good Grief Moments” — the unexpected gifts, lessons, and perspectives that have changed their lives after loss.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I would like to thank Amanda for joining this “grief podcast”community. It might sound just that simple, but talking/listening about grief is much like the grief process itself. Each day it can feel different than the day before. Just as we are ever-changing/growing, so is our experience of loss and of learning about it too. After many losses, within my family of origin, over the past 20 years, I find myself experiencing each loss differently, and being present in a different way to learning more about grief and about myself. I am here for all of it, and for anyone who is going through it. Thank you, Amanda, for bringing your particular thoughtful, honest, empathetic, friendly and hopeful voice to the subject. I am truly feeling in community here. Rooting for you all the way.💛💐💝

Charlie Belle's Mom · Sep 2026

I love this podcast! I love it because Amanda connects with her guests from an honest perspective since she’s experienced grief herself. I love that she’s having these conversations and bringing different perspectives and experiences of people’s lived grief experiences.

Amanda has such a compassionate and honest approach to grief. Every conversation feels genuine, comforting, and hopeful. ❤️

FromMalibuWithLove · Aug 2026

Like everything Amanda does, this is such a thoughtful sincere and AUTHENTIC podcast. She carefully selects guests with whom she shares a very cool rapport, and the convo feels so natural. Before you know it, it’s over and you actually learned something and laughed and smiled. Never a bad idea to listen to one of these episodes!
