Today, I’m joined by my mentor and dear friend Kate Appleton to talk about grief, death, and the illusion of separation. We explore what it means to hold space for loss in a culture that rushes past it, and how connecting with the mystery of what’s beyond the veil can bring us closer to love, not further away. If you’re navigating any kind of loss, or simply craving a gentler, more connected way to think about life and death, I hope this conversation brings you comfort and clarity.
