Grief isn’t just about loss—it’s also about becoming.

In this powerful episode of Talk Healing to Me, host Karen Dwyer sits down with clinical psychologist, author, and mental health expert Dr. Sherry Walling. Together, they explore how grief can transform us, how to support children when living with MS, and why movement and creativity are vital to emotional healing.

Dr. Walling offers compassionate insights drawn from her own personal and professional experiences—including her family's MS journey—and discusses how rituals, emotional honesty, and even aerial movement can support processing deep grief and navigating uncertainty.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

📖 How to name and honour grief that isn’t about death — like the loss of health or identity

🎣 Why rituals, creativity, and even aerial movement can support deep healing
