In this episode, we dive into five stages of grief—denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance—as originally introduced by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross. We’ll explore how these stages help us understand our emotional responses to loss and how they guide us through the healing process.
We also introduce the groundbreaking work of grief expert David Kessler, who expands on the original model with the concept of "meaning making." Kessler argues that finding meaning in loss is a critical, often overlooked step in grieving, allowing us not only to heal but also to transform our pain into personal growth and deeper connection.
