Grief is something we all experience; it's the natural reaction to loss. Grief is individual, and can be different for each loss you have. Grieving is also something most people don't want to talk about! Well, we talk all about it here - the hard stuff but also the light stuff too. We'll explore tools and techniques like yoga, meditation, ritual, journaling and more so you can begin to move from grief pain, heal, discover joy again and grow from your grief.

  When Others Don't Know What To Say

  Jul 15, 202650 minS2

  Send us Fan Mail What do you say when someone you love is grieving? And just as importantly, what should you avoid saying? In this heartfelt conversation, I sit down with grief educator, author, and speaker Heidi Dunstan, whose own experience of suddenly losing her husband inspired her mission to teach others how to support grieving people with compassion and confidence. Together, we explore why so many people disappear, say the wrong thing, or simply don't know how to show up—and how even small acts of kindness can make a profound difference. Whether you are grieving yourself or want to better support someone you love, this episode offers practical wisdom, heartfelt stories, and gentle reminders that grief is ultimately a reflection of love.
