039 - Holiday Mini - The benefits of grief

Today we're going to be talking about the holidays and grief. Grief. Yes, I know. Please don't skip this one. Don't skip this one because if you turn it off, you will not be able to either hear for the first time or be reminded of the benefits that come as a result of grieving. When I am talking about grief, I'm talking about the pain of loss and that could be, the obvious loss of someone through physical death, and it's so many other things as well. It could be loss of hope, loss of dream, loss of relationship, loss of esteem, loss of yourself, because you've been busy having to do a lot of different things and you've left yourself behind and you don't even know when or where or how. You just know that you feel empty. So if you've ever experienced loss, and that's all of us, grief is painful. However, if we treat ourselves well in the grieving process, (no matter what that looks like and yours doesn't have to look like anybody else's), but if we treat ourselves well in the grieving process, we're able to come through that grief to a different place. *** I invite you to come on in and join the conversation.

Om Podcasten

Inviting all women, in particular my Black sisters, to take up space and just be. An invitation to talk about what we think about, but rarely speak about. Conversations about spirituality, relationships, the “ism’s,” sex, mental wellbeing, secrets and feelings that we stuffed. We will celebrate! You will laugh, cry, be pissed, disagree, and begin to count yourself in where you’ve been counted out. Lisa Lackey, therapist, consultant and chief conversation starter and her guests will challenge you to keep the conversation going. Think of Insideout Conversations as brunch with your main girls right in the middle of the week.
