Parents, grief is one of those tough topics that so many of us struggle with — how do we help our children when they lose a loved one, a pet, or even go through big life changes like divorce?
In this episode of the Pumped Up Parenting Podcast, I’m talking with Dr. Jerry L. Woodbridge, an award-winning Christian author, grief advocate, and lifelong educator, about how we can guide our kids through these hard moments with honesty, love, and faith.
Dr. Jerry shares her own journey of loss, what she learned as both a mom and a teacher, and how her book Joy Overcame Sorrow gives kids and parents a safe way to explore grief together. You’ll hear about the power of storytelling, journaling, memory boxes, and most of all—being real with our children so they feel safe sharing their feelings.
This conversation is full of hope, tools, and encouragement for every parent. Because yes, grief hurts, but it also comes from love. And with the right support, kids can learn to carry both sorrow and joy in their hearts.
