It's Okay to Be Angry at God/Your Higher Power


Listen Later

Sherrie Toews is the Founder and CEO of Effortless Momentum as well as a licensed marriage family therapist and breakthrough coach. When it comes to grief, it can be so hard working through your emotions. If you find yourself hung up or stuck, a therapist can help you through your grief process. In this episode, Sherrie shares some strategies on the best ways to navigate your grief and communicate with your loved ones on what you need.

Key Takeaways:

  • When it comes to grief, what do some of Sherrie's clients struggle with the most?
  • Susan's daughter went into a very dark place when Paul passed away. No one really knew how to respond to it.
  • Why is it that some people get stuck in their own emotions?
  • Expressing anger is very healthy.
  • It's so important to work through your emotions and get help if you need it.
  • "Why Me?" is sometimes an impossible question to answer.
  • Write a letter to whoever you're mad at! Let it all out!
  • When Susan was grieving, she didn't need a casserole, she needed someone to just hold her hand and stare at the wall.
  • You're doing the best you can and your friends/family are also doing the best that they can, but miscommunication or mismatches will happen during your time of grief.
  • When do you know you're experiencing healthy anger vs. unhealthy anger?
  • Love people through the anger phase.
