Coping with Grief in a Blended family with Titilayo Somorin


Listen Later

Grief is definitely something that can affect everyone differently. In this episode, we’ll discuss the importance of support and managing expectations when dealing with grief in a blended family. We’ll explore how to best communicate with each other and how to adjust expectations to create a healthy environment.

After the sudden loss of her mother in 2016, she soon realized the scarcity of grief resources and lack of public knowledge available to grievers and their supporters.  Titi’s advocacy is rooted in removing the stigma and time limit surrounding grief and improving workplace bereavement policy.

Her work includes a community partnership with Stella Maris, Inc, one of the only full service hospice and bereavement centers in MD, a statewide initiative- the Give Grief a Voice speaker series. Through her online community, she shares her grief journey and amplifies the complexities of this experience. With a heart for public service, she regularly partners with public and private organizations for community events.
