Totally Booked with Zibby

Meghan Riordan Jarvis on Navigating the Trauma of the News


Listen Later

Recorded live at Zibby’s Bookshop x Minnie Rose, grief expert Meghan Riordan Jarvis, founder of the Grieftastic Book Fair and author of END OF THE HOUR and CAN YOU TELL ME?, joins Zibby for a compassionate conversation about navigating grief, loss, and collective trauma, especially during the holidays. Meghan shares practical, science-backed tools for processing overwhelming news, managing stress in the body, and understanding how writing, movement, and creativity can support healing. Together, they also explore how grief shows up even when loss isn’t personal, how to care for ourselves without minimizing our pain, and how to truly show up for others who are grieving.
