In grief, we often search for meaning to our losses. Through my personal story and examples, I illustrate the ways we do this.
You may have found yourself creating memorial walks, pursuing activism or legislation, or fundraisers following the death of a loved one or traumatic experience. And, doing these things are great, as they are a contribution to society. However, sometimes we do these things as a means to distract ourselves and channel our pain, thereby, trying to avoid the actual feelings we're feeling.
I explore this topic in today's episode and plan to do so, even more, in-depth at a later date. I feel like it's an area of grief that's not talked about often, but that explains a lot about our basic human needs and condition as they relate to grief.
If there's a topic you'd like me to explore more deeply on the podcast, send your requests my way here.
