Navigating Grief: Helping Adults and Children Heal
“We're teaching by modeling our children...they also see mom and dad are more frustrated, more on edge, a little bit more angry, maybe a little more short-tempered, and we don't think that has anything to do with the losses, but they all connect.”
Grief is a universal experience, but it affects everyone differently. In this heartfelt episode of 'Crossroads with Jenny Bushkell', Jenny is joined by Joy Gaertner, a certified grief recovery specialist, and Karen Russell from Recovery Kids at Powell UMC. Together, they dive into the challenges of dealing with loss, particularly in the wake of COVID-19 and recent school shootings. The conversation isn't just about understanding grief; it's about learning how to help both adults and children navigate through it.
Joy shares valuable insights from her workshop 'Helping Children With Loss', offering practical tools and strategies for healing. Karen adds her expertise on supporting kids through tough times. The episode emphasizes the importance of breaking the silence around grief, creating safe spaces for sharing, and leveraging faith as a cornerstone for recovery. If you're looking for compassionate advice and real-life strategies to cope with loss, this episode is a must-listen.
