Julia is a Filipino/Fijian migrant who moved from Indonesia to Australia aged 14... and lost her mother three days before her 17th birthday. The 23-year-old shares her story of navigating the grief of her mother's death in her Pentecostal Church, and how she felt it swallowed up her personal loss. In an extra episode for the Living Loss series, Catriona Stirrat speaks to Julia about how culture can sometimes clash with our grief journey, as well as the differences between Australian and Indonesian grief practices.
