Episode Synopsis

Hey friends, welcome back to Living with Loss. In this episode, I'm sharing a story about a meltdown I had in the supermarket. It was the day after a tough conversation with my mom about end-of-life issues, and I was riding an emotional rollercoaster. Who knew a sad Ed Sheeran song could trigger such a wave of grief? We'll dive into the concept of grief waves – those unexpected surges of emotion that can hit us out of nowhere. We'll also talk about triggers, the things that can activate our grief, and how to cope when these moments strike. What You'll Gain from Listening: Understanding Grief Waves: Learn about the ebb and flow of grief and how to navigate these emotional surges. Recognizing Activations: Discover common grief activations and how to manage them. Permission to Feel: Embrace the importance of allowing yourself to feel your emotions, even in public places. Practical Tips for Coping: Get actionable advice on handling grief waves and triggers with compassion and self-care. Join me as I share my supermarket sob story and offer insights into how we can all give ourselves permission to feel our feelings without shame or apology.   In the midst of grief or facing the loss of a loved one?
