60: Love, Loss, and the Courage to Heal
Manage episode 413133135 series 3365992
We just finished a season of celebrating my son's joyful wedding one moment and then, in the blink of an eye, faced with the sorrow of my mother's health battles and eventual passing. It's within these contrasting experiences that this episode was born, sharing with you the raw and honest reflections on grief's profound impacts, the path to healing, and the power of what my coaching experience allowed for me. The journey through loss has not only reshaped me but has also reinforced my dedication to provide comfort and understanding to parents who have experienced the unspeakable agony of stillbirth and child loss.
We then open up the discussion of navigating life after a loss, addressing the paralyzing mix of guilt and fear, and how to find courage in vulnerability. I offer insights into how grief can alter one's approach to life, sometimes causing a ripple effect through generations, and how to embrace risks for a more fulfilling life after loss. I hope this conversation serves as a beacon of guidance and understanding for anyone walking this challenging path.
