Do let us know what you found helpful - thank You!

Welcome, listeners, to another Let's Talk About Grief podcast episode. This is where we often dive deep into the profound emotions and transformative power of navigating our grief.

Our topic today is about multiple deaths and losses experienced within a short period of time. How does someone find the strength even to catch their breath and resurface amidst the receding waters of grief, only to be hit by subsequent waves of sorrow? I'm certain our next guest may have some answers. I'm really honored to have Theo Boyd as our guest.

Now, a little about Theo: she's a writer, and I understand she often writes poems with her dad. She learned many hardships from her mom. She was a high school teacher teaching English and Creative Writing and continues to write as a guest columnist for several local newspapers. And she's also a podcast host herself. Theo's story is depicted in a very heartfelt memoir, My Grief Is Not Like Yours.

Learning to live unimaginable loss is a testament to resilience, faith, and the indomitable human spirit. We will certainly dive into her book, where I know she bears her soul, sharing these unimaginable events that unfolded in her world!

 

Here's what we talk about:

  • Discover how Theo found purpose by turning her misery into a ministry of hope and support.
  • How has Theo's journey of coping with multiple losses and trauma shaped her perspective on life and resilience?
  • In times of loss, offering support without judgment is crucial, simply allowing people to grieve.
  • Why is it important to be aware of and avoid unhealthy ways of dealing with grief?
  • And much more!
