In this episode, we explore a transformative approach to grief that redefines how we navigate loss. We introduce a new paradigm encapsulated in the acronym GRIEF: Ground, Release, Integrate, Establish, Foster. This approach not only helps us heal but also opens doors to new possibilities and growth.

Grief is an ongoing journey, not just a one-time event. Throughout life, we all experience grief through both large and small losses. These moments of grief are not just painful—they are also deeply informative. They reveal what we hold most dear and valuable. Furthermore, when we experience loss, we often grieve not just the tangible aspects but also the part of ourselves that we were before the loss.

Joining me is Shelby Forsythia, the founder of Life After Loss Academy and host of the Dear Grief Guide podcast. Shelby is a grief guide and author who has dedicated her life to helping others navigate the complex journey of grief. With her compassionate and insightful approach, she has empowered countless individuals to find healing and growth after loss. Through her work at the Life After Loss Academy, Shelby offers a supportive community and resources to help people move through grief with intention and grace.
