If you’ve been feeling heavy, anxious, or emotionally drained—but you can’t explain why—this episode of the Hard Times No More Relationship Podcast is for you.
Grief isn’t always about losing a loved one to death. Sometimes it’s about emotional pain you carry when someone changes, when life doesn’t turn out the way you planned, or when you’re navigating big transitions.

In this powerful episode, wellness and relationship coach Allesanda Tolomei-Hard explores how unprocessed grief lives in the body, and how women—especially caregivers and high-achievers—can learn to acknowledge and gently release grief through awareness, breath, and body-based healing.

You’ll also be guided through a 5-minute somatic meditation to help you connect with areas of your body that may be holding grief or emotional tension. Plus, she shares reflective journaling prompts for grief healing, and how to know when it’s time to reach out for support.


💬 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • What hidden or ambiguous grief can look like (especially when no one has died)
  • How chronic illness, caregiving, and family changes can activate grief
  • Why grief often resurfaces around anniversaries, holidays, or major life shifts
  • A gentle, body-centered meditation to help you release emotional tension
  • Simple tools for grief processing, emotional clarity, and nervous system regulation


📝 Journaling Prompts for Grief Awareness & Emotional Healing:

  • What does your body need from you today?
  • What are you grieving that hasn’t been named yet?
  • How does your nervous system feel when you slow down and listen?
  • Is there a version of you or your life that you’ve outgrown—but still miss?
  • What would it feel like to allow grief, without needing to fix it?

These grief journaling prompts support self-reflection, emotional clarity, and creating space for authentic healing.
