Episode Synopsis

In today's episode Scharlee and Emily discuss the thing that everyone knows, but we really don't necessarily want to talk about - how everyone has experienced loss in 2020, and that is making the holidays harder. Emily and Scharlee talk about why loss is difficult, the stages of grief, what to do with feelings of grief and loss during the holidays, and what NOT to say to people who are experiencing feelings of loss and grief. We also talk about how to be a safe person for those around us who are walking through grief and loss and mention creative ways people have cared for us and that we've been able to care for others.
Hopefully after listening, you feel encouraged to know that you are not alone. This year has been hard. And it's okay to feel that way during the holidays. 
We are rooting for you this holiday season and we love you all! Thanks for listening!
