The pain of loss
January 2, 2022

The pain of loss shouldn’t be stuffed down and avoided, it should be felt at the deepest level, but only when you’re ready and only at the pace you can handle. Everyone experiences loss differently so what works for one person may not work for you.

In this episode, I help you connect with the deeper layers underneath the loss so that perhaps there can be some small release or relief. This isn’t about healing, it’s about connecting. And sometimes that’s all that’s needed to start healing.

When someone we love passes, it leaves a hole in our heart and sometimes a lack of closure. It’s that lack of closure that keeps us in feelings of guilt, regret, and other emotions that we just can’t shake.

Lots more to explore in part two of the self-help variety show. What you are upset about has an origin from the past, exploring that can heal the present.

Do you stand up to your family for your significant other? Is it a good idea? How do you handle apologies and forgiveness? Should you ask for forgiveness?

What happens when you partner’s child doesn’t accept you in their life? What do you do with the feelings of shame and anger around someone’s death? Lots to explore in this New Year’s edition of TOB.

Self-empowerment means you have no fear in making the decisions that are right for you.

It is having options when there appear to be none because you accept the consequences for decisions you wouldn’t normally make.
