Grief is already heavy—but believing the wrong things about it can make it even harder. In this episode of The Good Grief Couch, we’re tackling three of the biggest lies about grief that keep people stuck. We kick things off with a wild story about surviving a cyclone (yes, really!) and the beauty of life coming full circle. Then, we get real about the misconceptions that can hold you back from healing, sharing what we’ve learned through our own grief and the women we walk with every day. If you’ve ever felt like you should be “over it by now” or wondered if you’ll ever feel like yourself again, this episode is for you.

In this episode, I sit down with funeral industry expert Gina Connolly, to unpack why pre-planning matters more than you think.
