Found Family with MaryB. Safrit

The Unexpected Keys to Moving Through Grief (feat. Carole Holiday)


Listen Later

In this episode, Carole and I discuss

  • The link between grief and hospitality 
  • The secret behind our 3 am come to Jesus moments 
  • The spiritual dimensions of food 
  • Grief, food, and other distractions: how to navigate healthy coping mechanisms
  • Social reentry through food: connecting with others in our grief 
  • Who our “stretcher people” are—and how to find them 

A divorce survivor and late-in-life thriver, Carole welcomed a new adventure as an "Accidental Author" with her debut book, "I Don't Know Who I Am Anymore."

Exploring the intersection of grief and faith, Carole wonders aloud about whether this "God-Man, Jesus," remains relevant when loss, disappointment and heartache arrive unannounced. After a long list of careers (including owning a "rose-covered cottage cooking school," ) Carole enjoys writing into retirement with the adulations of nine grandchildren who still think she's really cool. She would heartily request that you not inform them otherwise.
