    Her father abandoned her as a child — and the next time she saw him was on his deathbed. Stand-up comic Jessica Singleton shares her deeply personal grief journey of abandonment, trauma, and eventual forgiveness. From being left at a Waffle House as a kid to facing her father’s final moments, Jessica opens up about acceptance, grief, and the messy path toward healing.

Equal parts raw and honest, this conversation is proof that grief doesn’t follow a straight line — and that healing can come from even the most complicated family stories.
