The Concussion Coach

68. Grief and Concussions: An Interview with Krista St-Germain & Becky Barnett


Listen Later

Grief is a topic that can be hard to discuss and hard to understand. It is so personal, and yet almost everyone will experience some degree of grief in their lifetime. Those suffering from concussions and post concussion symptoms are no exception. The loss they experience can be profound. This discussion addresses how grief can present itself, what strategies can be helpful in processing it, how loved ones can support someone in grief, and what post-traumatic growth is.

My guests are experts in grief, through study and personal experience. Krista St-Germain is a master certified life coach whose experience losing her husband set her on a path that has led to her creating a program that helps widowed moms love their life again. Becky Barnett is a widowed mom (who is in Krista's program and loves it and recommends it highly) who has 3 daughters who have concussions and has experience with grief in the loss of her husband and in the experience of her daughters' concussions.

If you would like to hear more from Krista or work with her in her Mom Goes On program, you can find her at www.coachingwithkrista.com. She also has a podcast called "The Widowed Mom Podcast" https://www.coachingwithkrista.com/category/podcast/
