We know the words ‘gifts’ and ‘grief’ grind against each other and strike a chord of dissonance. But if you allow yourself to fully ride each wave of grief that comes in, after a while, unexpected gifts arise out of the deep waters.
Margo Arrowsmith, Amy Lanci, and Nancy Loeffler band together in this episode and share how:
Grief, though a complex and difficult journey, eventually leads us to blessings and grace
Blessings and gifts show up as chance encounters, stories, conversations, healing other past wounds, and grow in confidence and strength
Finding your voice as you become strong enough to talk through and process your grief
We can only receive and experience the gifts of grief if we are vulnerable enough to walk through grief itself
PLUS, what to say (and NOT to say) to those who are grievingBeing human is messy. We feel we need to maintain a level of perfectionism - the journey of grief upends that facade. But even the dark and difficult human experience of grief can yield gifts we never expected, as shown in this episode of The Milk Crate Mastermind Podcast.
