Episode Synopsis

Turning 39 has me reflecting on a year that cracked me open in ways I never saw coming. What I thought would be a season of grounding in Melbourne became a year of eclipses, ancestral grief, shadow work, back pain, and deep lessons in rest, authenticity, and radical self-love.In this episode, I share the biggest truths this past year handed me: ✨ Why grief isn’t just about loss, but how we metabolize change and integrate absence. ✨ How anger, when honored, becomes love’s guardian and reconnects us to dignity. ✨ Why sadness softens us, humbles us, and grows our capacity for empathy. ✨ The body’s wisdom — and how my own pain forced me to slow down and live differently.This isn’t an episode about chasing happiness. It’s about embracing the full spectrum of being human — and how grief, anger, and sadness are the very teachers that deepen our capacity for love, connection, and authenticity.Links: 🌹 Work with me: The Season Between Stories — https://parulgupta.com.au/#coaching-program  🌹 Book a FREE Clarity call —  https://calendly.com/hello-parulgupta/complementary-discovery-call?month=2025-09 🌹 Website — https://parulgupta.com.au/As Rilke reminds us: “Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
