Drop me a message or voice note!We’re diving into the concept of disenfranchised grief—the “silent sorrow”, as I sometimes call it. This is grief that’s often not openly acknowledged, socially validated or publicly mourned, which makes it especially challenging to navigate.In this conversation we’re chatting about various examples of disenfranchised grief that are long overdue for some validation—think: the loss of an ex-partner or estranged family member, unrecognized or invalidated relationships, losses that are considered “less significant” than a death, stigmatized losses, losses of a job or sense of identity, major life transitions, and more.This is truly such an underrated yet incredibly important type of grief to acknowledge, so I’m also offering some insight into how to cope and navigate this. And, as always, giving you some practical coping strategies along the way.My mission with this topic is to validate your experience and loss, and provide you tools, support, and mindset shifts to help you navigate this complex form of grief. Click here to join me in my 14-Day Relief in Your Grief Experience and begin feeling lighter, at peace, and more grounded today.

Drop me a message or voice note!Today we’re joined by Lauren Evans, author of the highly relatable fictional novel, “Casket Case”. I serendipitously found this novel in an airport and was immediately drawn to it, then proceeded to finish it very quickly because it was THAT good!In this episode we're talking all about Lauren's book, which intertwines themes of love and grief—two things I know will speak to so many grievers here. Her book follows Nora, a young woman who returns to her hometown after her parents' death to run their casket store, who eventually meets Garrett, a logistics coordinator for death. And yes, it's as juicy as it sounds!In our conversation we explore how grief shapes the characters' lives, and how it reflects real-life grieving experiences that we all go through—ones I have no doubt you can relate to. We touch on the challenges Lauren faced while writing about grief and loss in this way, and how writing served as a cathartic process for her.The episode highlights the importance of acknowledging grief, giving ourselves permission to feel it, and finding ways to integrate and transform this profound and deeply painful experience.Support the showSupport the podcast: https://buymeacoffee.com/lifewithgriefpodcast📖 Life Beyond Grief Substack: https://taraaccardo.substack.com/Work with me:Micro-Moments for Transformation: https://lossesbecomegains.com/transformation14-Day Relief in Your Grief Challenge: https://lossesbecomegains.com/relief-in-griefWork with me one-on-one: https://lossesbecomegains.com/work-with-taraConnect with me further:Leave a voice note: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2429466/fan_mail/newInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegains/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lifewithgriefpodcast/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/losses.become.gainsWebsite: https://lossesbecomegains.com/Shop the LBG Daily Journal: https://lossesbecomeg...
