  • 15. Loss & Love: Grief (Feb. Special Series)
    Please enjoy this beautiful conversation with my special guest Michelle Catts where we talk about grief. To experience loss means that you experienced the connection first. The relationships we have that are no longer with us in the physical world, maybe experiences that you thought you would have and it turned out differently, or someone you love has passed away. All of these situations are valid for us to grieve. Grieving is a universal experience, yet as humans, we resist it a lot. We shut it down, avoid it, and try to rush through it. In today's episode Michelle and I get into what grief is, the misconceptions of grief, and how to support ourselves and others grieving.

    This episode is a part of The Bestie For Life Podcast Special February Series: Types of Love. The Ancient Greeks had words that described more specific types of love, than just what we typically understand love to be today. They differentiated between passionate sexual love and deep friendship love, love for everyone, love for yourself, long-standing love, and playful love. So, for the next 4 episodes we will explore different types of love and relationships that we have in today's culture that Kelly Ann feels deserve just as much attention and intention as our romantic relationships do. As Mindy Kaling said: "Best Friend isn’t a person, it’s a tier.” I love this quote and I think of it often as I reflect on the people in my life and what they mean to me. So, this series is to celebrate the love that we have for different people in our lives.
