Host, Malisa Hepner, opens up about navigating grief and the emotional challenges that come with protecting your peace while carrying profound pain. Malisa explores how grief can impact boundaries, emotional regulation and relationships while sharing grounded practices that have helped her move through overwhelming moments with greater self-awareness and compassion. This honest conversation offers support for anyone struggling to care for themselves while grieving, healing, or carrying invisible emotional weight.

Grief often lowers our emotional capacity, making boundaries feel harder to maintain. Before reacting, pause and ask yourself: "Do I actually have the emotional energy for this right now?" Protecting your nervous system is not avoidance—it's self-respect.
