Listen "Lisa Keefauver: Grief is a Sneaky Bitch"
Episode Synopsis
Lisa Keefauver is intimately acquainted with grief. In her professional life as a grief activist, social worker, podcaster, author, and speaker, she is committed to illuminating and dismantling the collective story of grief we’ve been told.
And as a young widow and recent cancer survivor, she brings her personal experience with grief to her work, as she holds space and bears witness to others who have experienced profound loss.
In this wide ranging conversation on grief, we discuss its relation to homesickness, its resemblance to scuba diving, and its connection to geography.
Lisa’s first book, Grief is a Sneaky Bitch: An Uncensored Guide to Navigating Loss, is being published by UT Press and will drop June 2024 and is available for pre-order now.
