S3E6 Permisson to Grieve with Rachel Garcia
Do you feel like your grief needs to be validated in order to mourn? Do you judge your loss as worthy before you allow yourself to feel it? Have you considered other manifestations of grief aside from death (aka ambiguous loss), one of the most common being divorce?
Join Amanda and her very affable, fun guest, Rachel Garcia as they discuss the importance of giving yourself permission to grieve, focusing on the grief of divorce and how it can be a catalyst for deep healing, one which prompted Rachel to start her podcast, The Grief Informed Podcast.
The ladies talk about what grief looks like after divorce but that's not all. They also dive into:
- Acknowledging, accepting, and embracing the fact that you are affected by certain losses, big and small
- What it means to be "grief informed"
- How to attune to your needs when you feel triggered by past trauma and loss
- Coming back into "contact" with your higher self and heart when you feel yourself dissociating from your grief
- How to create a nonjudgmental and compassionate space within in order to feel safe enough to grieve
- You cannot receive the support you need if you aren't willing to be vulnerable, and much more.
About Rachel
A single working mom with four teenagers in Birmingham, AL, Rachel worked as a Doula and Childbirth Educator for 10 years and dabbled in life coaching. She found her niche for this season of life through having long form conversations about the ways we are each affected by grief and the ways in which we can better show up for ourselves and for others in that sacred practice. Rachel lost both of her parents at a young age, faced early childhood trauma, and understood grief through bereavement. But it was divorce that taught her another level of grief she wasn't quite prepared for! It was this grief that inspired her to start and host her podcast, The Grief Informed Podcast.
