Singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles has been dealing with significant personal losses. She has lost two close friends to cancer and is struggling with fertility issues, now in her third year. Bareilles has also been facing challenges with her mental health, describing a new low.

She has been working through her grief, eventually coming to see it as a kind of devotional practice. This process has been reflected in her new album, "Good Grief", which she has described as raw and tender.

Further details about Bareilles' experiences and her new album are available from the source.
