Honoring Mike: Embracing Vulnerability and Mindfulness

The courage of vulnerability enables us to sit with a friend who has a child that died in a car accident, to sense her pain and listen openly, without preconceived bias.
This episode of 'Is This All There Is?' takes a heartfelt pause as Todd Brossart pays tribute to his cousin Mike, who recently passed away from COVID-19. Todd shares a moving passage from Frank Ostaseski's book, 'The Five Invitations', highlighting the strength found in vulnerability. Vulnerability, Todd explains, isn't about weakness; it's about being open and non-defensive, allowing us to fully experience our emotions without shutting down.
In these challenging times, he reminds us of the importance of staying present, slowing down, and gently holding our pain rather than fighting it. Todd also advocates for integrating mindfulness into our daily lives and offers a free mini-course to help listeners start their mindfulness journey. This episode is a touching reminder of the courage it takes to be vulnerable and the power of mindfulness in navigating grief and sorrow.
