Ed Owens: Transforming Grief into Purpose and Healing

And that's where we're at with grief recovery method. And so peace, love and harmony: that's what I'm all about, and I hope you can get that way too.
Imagine losing someone so dear that your world shatters, and grief takes over every corner of your life. In this heartfelt episode of 'Grief Recovery Now', Charlene Gorzela sits down with Ed Owens, a retired US Airforce first sergeant and civilian policeman, who knows this pain all too well. After the devastating loss of his three-year-old son, Ed faced the dark abyss of grief. But instead of letting it consume him, he discovered a path to healing and purpose.
Ed, now the Director of the Advanced Grief Recovery Method Program for the Grief Recovery Institute, shares his journey from short-term coping mechanisms like anger and overproductivity to finding real, lasting recovery. Charlene and Ed dive into the importance of addressing grief head-on rather than masking it with temporary fixes. They discuss how common reactions to grief can often hinder true healing and emphasize the necessity of taking deliberate steps towards recovery.
This episode also touches on the impact of Covid-19 on our collective grief and the importance of reaching out for support during these challenging times. With practical advice and deeply personal stories, Charlene and Ed offer a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with loss. Tune in to hear how you can transform your own grief into a journey of healing and purpose.
