Circumstances that cause us to grieve are inevitable, they knock on everyone's door at least once, yet we often treat them as taboo. Talking about our grief experiences normalizes them. We can learn from those who have endured it, so that we might better serve others who grieve, as well as prepare ourselves to find grounding in grief when it visits us.
In this first episode of Grounding Grief the host, Ann Beach, talks about her grief story as she faced the unexpected, violent death of her first-born child, Victoria, who was murdered by an ex-boyfriend on May 14, 2014. -
Podcast.
Grounding Grief is a new podcast, dedicated to talking about grief. Grief visits all of us at least once, yet we are uncomfortable supporting those in its grip or facing it when it visits us. Conversations about grief help normalize it so that we may serve those as they endure grief and prepare ourselves to face it when it knocks on our door.
The first episode will air on April 7.
