If you find yourself entrenched in anxiety, worry, and fear, whether it be from the state of the world or from a particular challenge in your life, this guided practice is for you. Jenn invites listeners to settle in with an object or two to invite compassion and forgiveness into every fiber of your being. You will be able to imagine and release a moment of regret or struggle and feel yourself fill with love. It is a practice you can return to time and time again when you need that reminder that you are deserving of compassion.

In today's society, it can be easy to find ourselves overwhelmed by unease and fear and simply grieving what used to be. In this episode with healers and storytellers Lewis Mehl-Madrona and Barbara Mainguy, they share about learning to manage our sense of discomfort around others with differentiating views and how we can use the power of positive belonging and community for healing and understanding.

Lewis and Barbara co-direct the Coyote Institute, where they are committed to bridging Indigenous wisdom, storytelling, psychology, and modern medicine. They share about their exciting 5th Annual Two-Eyed Seeing Conference coming up in January and tell stories of spiritual healing across many disciplines. The episode ends with a powerful metta meditation to offer yourself acceptance and kindness so that you can go on to wish those same affirmations on the ones we love, as well as those who make us uncomfortable.

Lewis and Barbara were the very first guests on the Walk Through Grief with Grace podcast, and as these four years of the show come to an end, it is an honor to welcome them back on for a message of love, deep listening, and collaboration in a divisive world.

As we approach 4 years of the Walk Through Grief with Grace podcast, we want to highlight and re-drop our most listened to episode with Hospice Nurse and Death Doula Gabby Jimenez. It is a fantastic introduction to Medical Aid in Dying and the powerful lessons that Gabby learned beside her brother's deathbed. Listen to discover how caregivers can also take care of themselves, the importance of saying what we want to say before it's too late, and the peace, joy, and dignity that can come with compassionate death.

Are you your own worst critic? Are you especially tough on yourself as you face grief, health issues, relationship struggles, parenthood, or other challenges? If so, this episode is for you. Jenn is joined by Breast Cancer Recovery Strategist and Mentor Dee Manuel Cloud to talk about the work Dee did to transform her life after her second breast cancer diagnosis. It was a wake up call that led her to leave an unhappy marriage, embrace her queer identity, improve her health, reduce stress, and help other breast cancer survivors protect their peace through her Gracefully Protecting Self (GPS) Initiative.

In just this one podcast episode, Dee provides 3 key ingredients for transformation and so much encouragement to treat ourselves with kindness, compassion, and grace. She reminds us that things will not change in the same environment that broke us and gives the encouragement we need to peel back the layers we have covered ourselves in to shield the true, vulnerable parts of yourself at the center. No matter what challenges you are faced with right now, this interview will leave you ready to face them head on.

Rest. Create Space. Remember. Three simple steps for any stage of grief or life transitions to help you decompress, sit with powerful emotions, and excavate gems of truth and wisdom that may transform into something beautiful. Befriending grief and realizing the power of authenticity and vulnerability have helped Educator and host of the Shift Sisters podcast, Sandra Sa, share the story of her grief after her sister's death through poems, paintings, podcast episodes, and more. The soft, dedicated containers for grief and healing that she has been a part of for the past few years have allowed her to tend to her grief as an extension of herself and honor the struggles of not just grief, but all of lifes transitions - taking on new titles, becoming a parent, getting married or divorced, starting a new job, and so much more. By slowing down and sitting with the feelings around these shifts, we can allow ourselves to heal, share, and empower others as Sandra has done so well.

A key tenet of both Sufism and this podcast is choosing love. Jenn is joined by Sufi Spiritual Guide and Co-President of the University of Sufism, Salima Adelstein, to discuss Sufi methodologies for healing, lessons Salima has learned over decades of spiritual work, and how we can bring spirituality into different spheres of our lives. She shares powerful takeaways from her time working with children in hospice care and the purifying act of crying and laughing. Listen for perspectives on healing rooted in a spiritual teaching that you may not be familiar with from the only female Shadhiliyya Sufi Guide in the United States.

Sometimes our soulmates are our friends. The people that we hand select to go through life with. In this episode, we honor that bond and the deep grief that comes with losing a friend. Jenn is joined by Certified Grief Educator and Author Hannah Rumsey, whose work honors her friend Lauren, who passed in 2015. Hannah and Lauren had a supernova of a friendship that formed at summer camp and continued despite long distances. Since Lauren's death, Hannah has created a one-woman show titled "42 Days of Summer," the podcast Friends Missing Friends, and her upcoming memoir. Hannah truly honors the disenfranchised grief of friend loss and shares how we can alchemize our grief into works of art. The grieving process and the creative process can both be incredibly daunting, but Hannah shares how we can break them down into smaller, more manageable parts and come out the other side a bit more healed.
