Do you ever dream of creating a program you'll love running over and over again?

My guest Amy has run her program, Grief Medicine, at least 9 times now. Sometimes people wonder if focusing on grief brings her down, but you're going to hear why working with folks around their grief brings her inspiration and joy.

As you listen to this conversation, one thing I want you to notice is how much Amy enjoys running this program and never seems to experience it as a grind. You'll hear how she created her program and how she continues to fill it after so many iterations. And by the way, it's mostly NOT through social media.

Meet Amy Hyun Swart, a therapist, writer, children's book illustrator, and entrepreneur who has been leading grief gatherings, rituals, and courses since 2015, both in-person and online. She was introduced to the healing power of grief work by way of her own life experience, the traumatic loss of a parent at an early age. As a grief activist, Amy views grief as a critical ingredient to move through these collectively heartbreaking times without losing our shared sense of humanity.

Here's some of what we talked about:

• Why her program went from 6 to 10 to 8 weeks long
• How grief is handled SO badly in our culture
• Co-hosting local grief gatherings
• Co-facilititating BIPOC Art of Grief courses
• Creating safety and connection in her program
• How she fills her program each time
• How her program has changed over time
• Why she's still feeling inspired by her program after 9 iterations
