Welcome to Episode 3 of Conversations with Joy, where Dr. Joy speaks with author, speaker, and grief advocate Angela Grant in a deeply moving and heartfelt conversation about radical forgiveness and grief.Angela shares her powerful journey through love, sudden loss, and the process of healing the death of her fiancé just one week after their engagement. At just 26 years old, she was forced to navigate a kind of heartbreak that reshaped her faith, identity, and sense of purpose.In this episode, Angela reminds us that grief is not just about death—it’s about any kind of loss or transformation. From heartbreak to life transitions, she offers profound insights, emotional wisdom, and gentle humor (including a memorable metaphor comparing tears to...farts 😅) to help us move through our own waves of grief with more grace and compassion.This is a conversation about love transformed, and the radical resilience that emerges when we allow ourselves to feel, forgive, and begin again.✨ If this episode resonates with you, don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to the channel.
