Day 5 of the 5 days of holiday grief is here!For the last episode of this mini-series, I want to talk about the balance of grief and gratitude around the holidays. And, explore the question of whether these two things can even co-exist.So many of us struggle with these contradictory emotions of grief and gratitude during the holiday season. And let’s be real, it can feel like gratitude, joy, and merriment aren’t even on our radar. Perhaps we’re still harboring some anger or resentment or hurt. Maybe it’s complicated feelings from years ago and you’re still struggling—because that is the reality of grief. So, let’s talk about how to navigate this very emotionally charged and complex time of year.PS—if you haven’t listened to episodes 78-81 (days 1-4 of our 5 days of holiday grief), definitely go check those out because we cover some really important topics! What holiday grief looks like and feels like, how to navigate it, holiday triggers, and more.

Day 4 of the 5 days of holiday grief is here!Today we’re digging into re-imagining the holidays after we go through a loss, and talking about how to even begin moving forward—which I know can feel so impossible sometimes.The holidays, an anniversary, a birthday, or any other day that holds special meaning can feel like everyone around you is celebrating or going about their normal life. Meanwhile, you’re just struggling to keep your head above water.This episode is going to be a little different than the other ones, because we’re also doing some exercises to help us along in our healing and grieving experience.Hint hint: we’ll go through some really helpful and thought-provoking prompts/questions to ask yourself, and even do a quick breathing and meditation practice!

Welcome Rebecca Feinglos to the Life With Grief Podcast, y’all! She’s the Founder of Grieve Leave and host of the Grief’d Up Podcast. And if you know Rebecca, you know how powerful and hilarious this conversation is going to be! Seriously, for a podcast that talks about death, grief, and loss we have entirely too much fun here...As both of us lost both our parents, we chat all about navigating these massive losses, major life changes, and finding solace in unexpected places—like Duke sports, in Rebecca’s case! She means business, you guys.Rebecca shares her deeply personal journey of grief, from her mother's battle with glioblastoma to her father's sudden death at the onset of COVID-19, and the subsequent shifts in her life—including ending her marriage and leaving her job.Through some of the best humor you’ll hear all day to incredibly heartfelt moments, Rebecca dives into the founding of Grieve Leave and the importance of building a grief support community. We also touch on the significance of finding quiet moments to help us in our healing journey, getting in touch with ourselves and how important this is, and the ultimate journey toward self-discovery in the wake of loss.Connect with Rebecca:

In this minisode, we’re tackling one of the most—if not THE most—overlooked aspects of grieving that I see as a Grief Coach and Educator. I can’t give it away here… you’ll just have to listen in to see what it is!But, I CAN say we’ll dig into an aspect of societal misconceptions about grieving, and of course I’ll offer up some practical tips for coping with prolonged grief. This topic is something about the grieving experience that I’m always (desperately) trying to normalize.A big takeaway today is to encourage you to integrate your loss into your life in the most meaningful, impactful way that works for YOU.

In this episode, we’re digging into biological impacts of stress and grief on sleep, highlighting the importance of natural sleep solutions, and even zeitgebers. If you don’t know what those are, you will be the end of this episode (and how important they are!). We’ll also talk about balancing parenthood or other responsibilities on top of all of this, and I’ll give you practical, tangible tips and solutions on how to navigate this insomnia or poor sleep that you can put into action right now to improve your overall wellbeing—and the grieving process.

She practiced law as a medical malpractice defense attorney for ten years before her husband had a severe reaction to a bee sting and sustained a severe brain injury, subsequently resulting in his death.Whitney decided to turn her pain into purpose and followed her new calling to serve others who are also experiencing grief and trauma and share her vulnerable and personal grief journey with others.She is the author of “Running in Trauma Stilettos,” which is an Amazon Best Seller, and also just released another book called “what must be carried”.Whitney is also a certified grief educator and provides grief coaching to those who are ready for their own transformation and growth after loss. She shares the empowering message that there is so much beauty in life, even after losing a loved one.This is an ideology that I am just so aligned with and speaks to everything I do at losses become gains and here on the podcast, and I’m truly so honored to share Whitney’s story and uplifting perspective with you here.

In this vulnerable episode, I’m sharing all about navigating motherhood without both of my parents.I talk about the profound impact of losing my mom and dad, grieving these deaths both in and out of parenthood, the complexities of parenthood intertwined with navigating this grief, and the unique challenges that arise when facing major life milestones without them.I also open up about my pregnancy journey and the birth of our daughter, and navigating this without my parents. And, the ongoing task of balancing the joy of parenthood with the anguish of loss. Lastly, I share some coping mechanisms that have helped me through this, and the significance of honoring the memories of loved ones—especially when bringing a child into the world.My goal with this episode is to provide comfort, support, and understanding for anyone here listening enduring parenthood without one or more of your parents, and to let you know you aren’t alone in this journey.
