Writing Through Grief with Rebecca Whitman
Are you “white-knuckling” through life? Perfectionism and control are many ways we disguise our fears in life. Being perfection-obsessed is not fooling anyone and more often than not we find ourselves at a breaking point when change and lack of control is inevitable.
In this episode, I am joined by my friend and kindred spirit, Rebecca Whitman. Rebecca is a success mentor, author of How to Make a Six-Figure Income Working Part-Time, host of the Balanced, Beautiful, Abundant podcast, and 12-step recovery coach. Rebecca describes herself as someone who was ‘white-knuckling’ through life and focusing only on validation from others until she got divorced and her father passed away within the same week. During her grieving process, Rebecca utilized writing and spirituality to cope.
Tune in to Episode 8 of Grief Recovery Now to learn how writing helped Rebecca grieve, her spirituality journey, and why she advises to put the focus on other people when grieving.
