What if the most profound grief could coexist with the deepest gratitude?

When Christie Miller lost her husband Mark to cancer just seven weeks before this conversation, she made a choice that might surprise you.  Dr. Katie Deming sits down with her to explore how someone can navigate devastating loss while finding meaning, purpose, and even peace in the process.

Christie is a mindset coach who has walked through her own cancer diagnosis and now the loss of her soulmate of 37 years. Her approach challenges everything we've been taught about "proper" grieving, showing how you can feel the full weight of loss while also excavating profound gifts from the experience.

Chapters:
00:09:00 - Grief Is the Tax on Love
00:28:25 - The Hug Sweatshirt
00:29:38 - Agreeing on Signs
00:34:28 - Facing Mortality
00:42:00 - Walking Him Home

Their conversation offers practical wisdom you won't find in traditional grief books. Christie shares specific techniques for combining gratitude with grief, how to stay present enough to notice signs from departed loved ones, and why giving yourself permission to grieve differently might be the key to healing.

Stay until the end to hear how Christie prepared for Mark's transition, why she believes everything happens with divine timing, and how her perspective on her own cancer diagnosis has completely shifted since his passing.

Listen and learn how to transform your relationship with loss, find purpose in pain, and discover that healing doesn't always look the way we expect.
