What if grief wasn’t something you “get over”… but something you could grow through?
In this powerful episode of the TRUE Wellness Podcast, Dr. Dee sits down with Lisa Archer—International Certified Life Coach, Grief Coach, Author, Speaker, Breast Cancer Survivor, and host of the Because We Love – Finding Meaning After Loss podcast.
After losing twelve loved ones in just twenty-two months—including her parents, niece, and 24-year-old son-in-law—Lisa faced grief that could have shattered her completely. Instead, she transformed her pain into purpose and now helps others create lives of passion and authenticity after loss.
Lisa reveals what most people get wrong about grief, why time alone doesn’t heal, and how to move from surviving to truly living again.
As a Life Coach and Grief Coach, Lisa’s priority is to create a safe confidential space for individuals who feel stuck, lost, stressed, lacking confidence and clarity, or grieving any type of loss, to create a life of passion and purpose.
