Episode Transcript

Hello, and welcome to Getting Grief. I’m Kelly and I want to discuss grief in its many forms and iterations. Grief isn’t relegated to happening after death and can spring up after all sorts of major life events. We grieve when we lose a friendship or relationship, after a job loss, when we lose an opportunity, and after major events. Sometimes we experience grief after good events, during which we mourn the loss of our old selves and learn to embrace our new selves. While grief can be a perilous journey fraught with pitfalls, it doesn’t have to be.

I’ve experienced grief in a few forms. I’ve lost loved ones, I’ve lost jobs, and I’ve experienced good events which left me feeling not quite like my old self afterward. I’ll discuss these down the line, but this podcast isn’t about me.

I would love to have conversations with listeners about their own journeys with grief and how they navigate the experience. If you would like to get in touch, please see the episode description for information on how to do so.

For anyone who is struggling, I encourage you to reach out to a mental health professional.

Thank you for tuning in. I look forward to learning and growing with you as we explore grief together.
