Imogen’s Untold Story: Unravelling a Web of Lies
We’re back with a brand new season of Good Mourning, and in this first episode, Im delves into the untold parts of her story following her mother’s suicide in February 2020.
In the depths of her grief, Im unearthed a devastating revelation – the person her mother had married was not at all who she said she was.
In the following months, Im went on to investigate who this woman was, and what she uncovered was unbelievable.
She shared her story with Journalist Emily Baker late last year on ABC’s 7:30 Report. You can find the story here.

Customer Reviews
So much light shared!
I enjoy these podcasts very much! They’ve been an important part of my grieving process and above all, Sal and Im have made me feel part of a community.
So many a-ha moments! So much love!!
Much love!
I stumbled across Good Mourning when I was knee deep in grief. I felt so unheard, misunderstood, and lonely during those times. I was experiencing so many new emotions—it was such a dark time for me. Grief was taking over my life. I started listening to Good Mourning practically nonstop. It helped SO much. I finally felt understood. I couldn’t believe other people were going through the same emotional roller coaster I was. I can’t thank y’all (sorry, that’s the southern in me) enough for creating such an amazing podcast. I’m on the other side of grief now, but I still listen to the episodes! They’re so relatable to where I am right now and where I was in the past. THANK YOU!
Such Vulnerability
Thanks, Em for sharing your deeply personal and vulnerable story! I’ve been listening since the beginning of your podcast! My husband died in January of 2020 and your honesty with such a hard topic has really helped me in my grief journey! I love the relationship that you and Sal have! I always look forward to your next episode!! Thank you!!
