On this deeply moving episode of Your Trauma Talks, we shine the spotlight on Jeanette Bass-Trigo, MSW—Grief and Purpose Coach, End-of-Life Care Coach, author, and founder of Inspire2Healing™ and The No Grief Zone™.
Jeanette’s story is one of quiet strength, profound loss, and unwavering faith. In her spotlight talk and intimate interview, she opens her heart about the childhood grief that shaped her life after losing the grandfather who became her father figure, and the later loss of her beloved companion, King. These early wounds became the foundation of her life’s calling: helping others navigate grief with compassion, purpose, and hope.
Through storytelling, journaling, and faith-centered healing, Jeanette challenges the way society rushes grief, silences pain, and expects people to “move on.” She reminds us that grief is not something to fix—it is something to honor. Her work creates sacred space for individuals and families to feel, process, and rediscover meaning after loss.
As the author of Granny Wonder: Stopping the Villains of Social Media and Can I Call Heaven?, Jeanette uses storytelling as a healing bridge, especially for children learning to understand loss, love, and God’s enduring presence. Her voice carries comfort for anyone who has loved deeply, lost painfully, and wondered how to keep going.
Guided by Rah (MrTraumaTalks), this conversation becomes a gentle but powerful reminder that grief does not mean weakness, faith does not erase pain, and healing does not require forgetting. It requires compassion, patience, and truth.
This episode is for anyone grieving in silence.
For anyone searching for purpose after loss.
For anyone learning that healing can coexist with heartbreak.
Listen with an open heart.
What is meant for you will stay with you.
