In this series: Crossing the Ocean of Grief, I am joined by the owner of Inspired Life & Grief Coaching practice, Educator, Author and Speaker, ⁠⁠Sandy Lotz-Weiner⁠⁠. In each episode we will look at different aspects and topics related to Grief. 

In this episode I talk to Sandy about what motivated her to write her book and to become a grief coach and educator, we explore what the different types of grief and losses are, look at why someone who has experienced loss and grief needs support and explore needs and tasks of grieving as well as taking a peek at Sandy’s unique Life Raft model and it’s four phases. Our session starts and ends with short practices that you can adopt as tools to help you navigate your own journey of loss, grief and life.

Sandy started her professional career as a pharmacist in South Africa, her country of birth. In 2003, she relocated with her late husband, Tony, to the beautiful Monterey Peninsula in California. There, she worked as a pharmacist and obtained credentials as a Health and Life Coach, working  with clients part-time. In 2017, with the passing of her husband and then her mother, Sandy became interested in studying grief and the grieving process. After she moved through her grief journey, she became a certified Grief Coach and Educator and the author of Crossing the Ocean of Grief book, a guide on how to save yourself from the depths of Despair after losing someone you loved.
