Navigating through times of grief, loss, and uncertainty can be incredibly overwhelming. How can we support ourselves and others through this process? Why does loss feel so difficult, so painful to process? How can we re-access meaning in our lives after we experience a loss --whether it be a loved one, a career, or an aspect of ourselves? Please join myself and Dr. Robert Neimeyer, international grief researcher and psychologist, as we discuss this process of reconstructing meaning in our lives after experiencing a loss. Please enjoy!
