The Sacred Journey Through Grief

Send a text

In this episode, I talk about falling apart…what it is, why we fear it and why falling apart might not be such a bad thing.

Falling apart is actually not the worst thing that can happen. What you really need to worry about is NOT falling apart.

As scary as it is, it is a necessary part of grief, and the more you resist it, the harder your grief can become. 

Stick with me here. I explain it all in this episode along with some client examples, and some suggestions for how to cope.

In this episode, I share one of the better portrayals of grief, particularly the grief following the death of a spouse, I’ve seen on television or in the movies.

It’s NOT the 5 Stages and it’s NOT mental health diagnostics.

So I take you through the storyline of Emily’s grief in the Gilmore Girls, “A Year in the Life”, sharing what I think they got right and what they didn’t, along with tips on how to apply this learning to your own grief.

In this episode,  I talk about the single most important thing everyone needs to know in the first few weeks and months following the death of their person...and most do not. 

So many people go through their grief wondering if they're doing this grief thing right.  Given the advice our culture so blithely hands out, it's little wonder so many worry that they are doing it all wrong.

I've heard it all in my 30+ years working with grieving spouses and others.  Most of that "well-meaning" advice is more about making them feel better than you. 

In this episode, I cut through all that nonsense, and share what to do instead.  It's not always popular, but it will get you headed in the right direction.  Knowing what I'm about to share can make the difference between moving through your grief successfully...or not.
