On today's show I talk about Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and the Five Stages of Grief, and how I have been thinking about these things a lot the past few days. I've been inspired by a few thought-leaders in recent days - Chip Conley, Brene Brown, David Kessler, and Elizabeth Gilbert. In this episode, I address how we can meet our needs, understand where we are and how we feel, and acknowledge the grief and loss we may be experiencing at this time. Allowing ourselves to truly feel how we are feeling, without judgment, can move us to a place of acceptance and, ultimately, meaning, in the midst of all of this.
