Thanks for joining for Episode 17! Today we are going to talk about duality in grief and cover quite a few thins:
So let's jump in!
Welcome to Episode 16! This is a slightly different style as I am going to talk through a topic and explain to you how you implement these processes into your daily life with grief - to help you move forward through a grief plateau or active grieving.
Today we are going to talk about:
What is witnessing your grief? Like what does that statement really mean? How do you witness your grief? What is true self care in grief?
So let's jump in!
Hi, welcome to the Young Widow Podcast and thank you for joining me today for Episode 15: the Fog of Widowhood.
Today, I want to talk about the fog of widowhood.
You know, when you go through loss, you can't remember old memories or you forget simple things in your daily life. I want to normalize those and validate it for you.
So today we're going to talk about what is the fog of widowhood and what are examples of it? What causes our brain to go hazy after loss? And how to work through that feeling of being confused and like your brain isn't operating at a normal level and how long something like this could even last for.
Hi, welcome to the Young Widow Podcast and thank you for joining me today for Episode 14: Acceptance vs Agreeance and Early Grief Healing
I'm Britany, your host, and I'm happy you could join today. There has been a lot of confusion on my Instagram page and I think this topic warrants a deeper discussion. This topic is focused on early and active grieving, again my niche is the first few years in grief. Not everyone is ready for growth in grief at the same time… in the early stages – you are just trying to figure out how to work through your emotions, what your emotions mean, and just flat out survive because it seems in-survivable. Emotions in grief run so deep that it can seem like there is nothing on the other side – you can’t look past the pain. So let’s talk about, lets validate it because you are growing and accepting even if you don’t think you are.
Today we are going to talk about:
What is acceptance vs agreeance
How are the two different and why are the terms not synonymous
And then we are going to touch on what early grief healing really is.
So let’s get started!
Hi, welcome to the Young Widow Podcast and thank you for joining me today for Episode 13: The Loss of Physical Intimacy in Widowhood
I'm Britany, your host, and I'm happy you could join today. This is a topic that was requested on Instagram. I'm always happy to do those topics. This is going to be a very intimate and personal topic, and I'm going to do the best to give you the advice that I can.
It is really hard to replace physical intimacy in widowhood. Whereas when you're dealing with the emotional aspect of grief, you're able to work through coping mechanisms for that. While those two aspects of loss and widowhood go hand in hand. They are very different when you're trying to navigate it.
Today, we're going to cover the loss of physical intimacy, how that affects you physically and emotionally, as well as what that may feel like, thoughts that may be going through your head, and then any advice that I can give you.
