Why I refuse to unfriend my dead mom | Cattleya Daub | TEDxAPU

What happens when the person you’ve lost still lives on, in your notifications? When Cattleya's mother passed away, the grief was swift and isolating. But in the depths of that pain, she found an unexpected lifeline: her mother’s Facebook profile. What began as a source of comfort soon became something more, a digital space where grief, memory, and love could coexist. In this deeply personal and thought-provoking talk, Cattleya explores how social media has transformed the way we mourn. Drawing from her own experience and emerging research, she reveals how platforms like Facebook have become new-age memory vaults where continuing bonds replace closure, and mourning turns into creation. A passionate writer with experience in storytelling across various projects, Cattleya’s talk delves into the evolving nature of grief in the digital age. Through her personal journey, she will explore how love, loss, and remembrance are transformed in an interconnected world. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
