Finding Light in Darkness: Kathryn Lund on Grief, Illness, and Healing

It's okay for me to feel sorrow and with feeling grief for the person that I was before I was ill. But whilst at first that was a difficult thing to reconcile myself too, because I felt a lot of anger at the fact I'd changed, I felt a lot of disappointment.
Ever felt lost in the maze of grief and illness? Kathryn Lund knows that path all too well. In this heartfelt episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles chats with Kathryn, the author of 'The Things We Left Sleeping'. Kathryn's life in York, England, is a tapestry of experiences shaped by a neurodivergent brain, chronic illness, and invisible disabilities.
Her book, a Shelf Unbound Indie Top 100 pick for 2022, is a profound attempt to make sense of these strange worlds created by trauma and illness. Kathryn opens up about her journey, sharing how writing became her lifeline through the darkest times. She speaks candidly about the physical pain she endures and how it intertwines with her mental health struggles. This episode isn't just about surviving; it's about finding new ways to live fully.
Kathryn and Valeria discuss the power of acceptance, self-love, and the spiritual truths that help us navigate our inner landscapes. Listeners will find inspiration in Kathryn's resilience and her ability to find light in the most unexpected places. Her story is a testament to the human spirit's capacity to heal and transform. If you're grappling with your own challenges or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers hope and practical insights.
