She shares stories of actual children who have gone through losses of a parent or loved one. The children don't want to be treated differently because of their grief. Dr. Christine shares how there are some ways to support them and make them feel understood without unintentionally isolating them. She also opens up about the delicate topic of dating and marrying a widow, how trauma affects the professional practice of coaching, and more. Tune in now and learn how to become present for a child in need.
