Episode Synopsis
Grief isn’t simple — especially when the relationship wasn’t either.In this solo episode, I respond to a listener question about what it means to grieve people with whom our relationships were unfinished, complex, or fraught.If you’ve ever felt tangled in grief — loving someone and resenting them all at once, or mourning what could have been, or even feeling relief at someone's passing — this episode will help you find self-compassion and grounding.In this episode, you’ll hear:Why telling the truth about your feelings is an act of healingHow to navigate grief that’s layered with conflict or complexityYou're in charge of your psychic space - and can set boundariesHow acceptance becomes a form of empowermentWhy healing is less about closure, and more about clarity** If you want to take this work deeper, join The Intrepid Soul Collective on Patreon where you’ll find companion content for this episode.Have a question you’d like Katie to answer in a future episode?
