What does grief mean to you?
In this episode of From Survivor to Thriver, we sat down with Audrey White, a grief coach, to explore what it truly means to grieve. Having experienced significant loss herself, Audrey has navigated the path to acceptance and found meaning in her losses. In this episode, she shares her story and discusses how she now helps others with their grief.
Join us as we discuss the stigma surrounding it, how to help someone you love through it or work through it yourself, and the power of vulnerability and community especially while grieving.
Audrey White is the co-author of Grief Coaching: Paving a Path from Pain to Peace and CEO of the Grief Coach Academy, the #1 coach training program dedicated to training coaches on how to help people through grief.
Her passion for healing is borne from her own journey through grief and loss. In 2020, Audrey lost eight family members, including her mother. In 2022, her brother was tragically killed by his wife, who subsequently took her own life. With her expertise in dealing with life’s setbacks, grief, and stress, Audrey has helped countless individuals find hope and healing during times of trauma and loss.
Her journey is one of heartbreak, surrender, and perseverance to find the joy of living again.
In today’s episode, we cover:
- How death is just like birth
- What it means to grieve and why society doesn’t want to talk about it
- The power of making meaning of loss
- Why vulnerability is a superpower that connects us
- The importance of community and intention while grieving

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
