Plus, stay tuned for exciting tidbits about our upcoming guests and thoughts on the role of faith during times of uncertainty and stress.

Ever experienced a loss that knocked the wind out of you, only to be followed by another before you could even catch your breath? That overwhelming wave of emotions you might have felt is what we're exploring today - compound grief. Drawing from my personal journey of navigating the loss of my father and uncle, I share my experiences, insights, and the importance of acknowledging mental health with the seriousness it deserves. 

Journey with me as I reveal the significant role therapy, self-care, and healthy coping mechanisms played in my recovery, and how these can be your allies in the battle against compound grief too. We explore the significance of understanding our individual needs during the grieving process, and the challenges that come with tackling compound grief. Tune in as I disclose how I wrestled with traditional grief rituals, like visiting my loved ones' gravesites, and how I found alternative ways to honor my grief.

As we conclude, we emphasize the absolute necessity of acknowledging and tending to our mental health during the grieving process. Hear about the importance of being connected with loved ones and not isolating ourselves in difficult times. This isn’t just an episode; it’s an affirmation - it's okay to grieve, and it's okay to seek help. So grab a comfy seat, make a hot cup of your favorite beverage, and let's talk about grief, healing, and everything in between.
