A Return to Podcasting...It's Just Me
Grief: A Love Story - the podcast
I have a love/hate relationship with this podcast when it comes to pulling together the executive functioning to Make It Happen. I just can't get interested. But here I am. I can't stay away. The book on which this was originally based has changed. I have changed. I am more, now. Here I am, riffing about--you guessed it--grief. Because I can't help myself. Listening to and reading the work of another writer brought me here, and I am not making promises, but I liked it. Enjoy. Or don't.

"Planning for death is a life-affirming act." My guest for this episode is DeAnne Joy, a fellow soldier in grief and death, and like so many of these conversations, I felt we could have gone on for days together. We covered all manner of topics, from advance directives, to mortality, to self-care, to women in crisis to the straight-up vulnerability of releasing a Book Baby to the world. This interview is exactly what I love; layers of topics covered as we meander about, with death and grief as the gateway in. DeAnne is a a master transformation coach, speaker, and author who teaches...

Grief: A Love Story - the podcast
"There's a constant stream of grief in parenting." Some conversations are just always delicious and I have never not enjoyed speaking with Gillian Rowinski in the years that I have known her and we have stolen some time to connect. In this conversation, we take a quick-but-deep dive into some of the grief that comes with parenthood (spoiler alert: it's a lot) and, I know I say this a lot, but it's one of my favourite episodes thus far. A little more on Gillian: Gillian is a writer and the creator of . She is also a certified coach, specializing in neuroscience and transforming...
