In 2015, Karen faced every grandparents worst fear when her 11 year old grandson suffered a brain aneurysm.

Collier, a very witty, charming and incredibly intelligent prankster would fight for 7 more months in the hospital before passing on on October 13th.

I sat down to talk with Karen about the way grief showed up for her and how she faced the reality of wanting to die, wondering "why Collier?" and how getting curious about a small, local Grief Share group changed the trajectory of her grief.

If you've ever wanted to hear about the power of hope and resiliency after loss, Karen's story is a great place to start.

Life is always inviting us to reimagine whats possible after loss. So be sure to share today's episode with someone needing to feel a bit of hopefulness today.

I'm grateful you're here,

Rachel
