Making Room for Grief: Real Stories and Practical Advice

It really is this area where people just don't know what to do with someone when they're grieving. But I remember feeling like quite lonely around that time. And, and and I remember one friend who, also um, lost her dad, she just looked at me and said: oh, what did you learn through that process?
Grief can feel like an endless journey, and knowing how to support someone going through it can be just as challenging. In this heartfelt episode of 'A Little Help For Our Friends', hosts Jacqueline Trumbull and Dr. Kibby McMahon tackle the multifaceted nature of grief. They bring their unique blend of personal anecdotes and professional insights to the table, making this conversation both relatable and informative.
Kibby opens up about her own loss, while Jacqueline shares her clinical experiences with complicated grief, offering a well-rounded perspective on this tough topic. The episode dives into the emotional whirlwind of guilt and anger that often accompanies grief and provides practical advice on how to support a grieving friend. They also touch on the therapeutic benefits of revisiting past traumas to make space for new grief.
If you're looking for a resource to help you understand and cope with grief, they recommend 'The Year of Magical Thinking' by Joan Didion. This episode is a compassionate guide for anyone navigating the rough waters of loss, whether you're experiencing it yourself or supporting someone who is.
