- Has life knocked you down? Pick yourself back up with my FREE Hot Mess Recovery Kit
No matter how hard you try, you just can't predict how you'll respond to the loss of a loved one. If you're like my husband Brian, you might experience a "tech rage" when the devices we rely on inevitably fail us in the midst of the grieving process. There's no right or wrong way to react, and giving yourself that grace is key. Today, I sit down with Brian to chat about our responses to the recent loss of his mother.
We talk about the 3 specific ways we reacted, how to approach these energy shifts with curiosity, and why we need to allow all emotions – rage, sadness, humor – to be present in the healing process. We also take a moment to reflect on midwestern jello salad and our favorite space facts because we need moments for those things too.
WE DISCUSS:
- (8:06) An action response to grief and staying busy to cope
- (14:55) Finding humor throughout the healing process
- (19:31) Our favorite mantra for grounding and connecting to self
- (22:40) Understanding the role of anger and rage
- (27:57) How to approach your emotional intelligence with curiosity
- (30:32) A moment for science
- (35:15) An invitation for expansion
