There are moments when I meet someone who can effortlessly articulate profound ideas, making them much easier to metabolize.That’s John Onwucheckwa, to me.John, a middle child born in Texas to Nigerian immigrant parents, opens up about the profound loss of his brother and the deep impact grief had on his life.He’s been a church planter, a pastor and recently completed his PhD covering the subject I love to discuss- Grief. Whether it’s spoken or written, John knows how to use words to convey the complexities of grief, hopefulness and joy with incredible depth and insight.With a shared admiration for Francis Weller, we deep dive into how to give language to our grief, what can help us when we feel trapped in hopelessness and the insights he's gained from years of witnessing both his own grief and that of others.If you are open to removing “grief as a journey” from your conceptual thinking and replace it with “grief as a language we become fluent in,” press play and be ready to take notes! He’s no doubt going to inspire hopefulness in your day today!Thank you for listening!-RachelAll things John O:Website: https://www.johno.co/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jawn_o/?hl=enBlog: https://www.johno.blog/Podcast: Four In The Morning https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/four-in-the-morning/id1521008739Portrait Coffee: https://www.johno.co/ventures#portrait
