Life With Grief Podcast | Grief Support Podcast

Drop me a message or voice note!Today is a very raw and honest solo episode as a reflection of three years without my dad, Greg Jordan. On this exact day, July 13th, three years ago, my dad succumbed to his prostate cancer.Your gain today is to get to know my dad a little better, but also to just have a very real conversation about the pain around losing a father or father figure. I'm talking about how I'm feeling, what I'm thinking, the hardest parts about being three years out from his death, and what I've learned since he died. Whether or not you’ve lost a father specifically, I have no doubt some of the things I’ll say or get into in this episode will be really relatable for you.I think these milestones are important to acknowledge and reflect back on. If this can help anyone else out there today, or help you feel less alone, that’s my goal!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook group: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastWebsite: https://lossesbecomegains.com/Grief Becomes Gains Online Course: https://lossesbecomegains.com/coursesEpisode on Grief Work mentioned in this episode: https://lossesbecomegains.com/what-is-grief-work/Discover Help Texts and receive a special price when you sign up, or gift it to someone who needs it!

Drop me a message or voice note!The topic of grief and how it affects our relationships continues! I feel like this is a really natural continuation of last week's episode with my husband, John. If you haven't listened to that one yet, definitely go check that out! It is a pretty juicy one—that is episode 9 of the podcast. In this episode, I'm getting a fellow girlfriend's perspective on relationships and grief and chatting with Shea Wingate. She is a Licensed Therapist and Grief Coach, and truly has a breadth of knowledge when it comes to the grief space. But not only that, Shea has a very painful firsthand experience with loss as well. She goes more in-depth into this in this episode, but the long and short of it is she lost her mom, dad, and sister all in less than two years. Today, I really wanted to introduce you to her and her story because I think so many aspects of it are things you may be able to relate to or see parts of your own grief in. I know I certainly did. And, with both of us having been in relationships as we were losing the most important people in our lives, she and I had a LOT to talk about here and what that looked like and how it affected us and our partners.  Where to find Shea:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thegriefgirlie/Website: https://www.thegriefgirlie.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook group: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastWebsite: https://lossesbecomegains.com/Grief Becomes Gains Online Course: https://lossesbecomegains.com/coursesDon't forget Welkin Memorials is giving you 10% off any urn with code LSupport 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...

Drop me a message or voice note!We're getting suuuuper real in this episode, y'all. Join me in welcoming my husband John to the podcast!We're getting into the depths of what being in a romantic relationship actually looks like as you're going through a deep loss and profound grief. This is something John and I went through together, we even broke up and rekindled the relationship because of my losses, and there were a WHOLE bunch of highs and lows along the way.  In this episode, we talk about how to navigate this, how to support each other, the importance of communication and patience, and how to come out of it all as unscathed as possible. And, more importantly, how this can look when one person in the relationship is losing the most important people in their life (hi, that's me when my parents died) while the partner perhaps is grieving the loss, too, but can't possibly relate to what you're feeling and experiencing. We dig into all of that and so much more, you will not want to miss this one!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook group: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastWebsite: https://lossesbecomegains.com/Grief Becomes Gains Online Course: https://lossesbecomegains.com/coursesDon't forget Welkin Memorials is giving you 10% off any urn with code LBG10 at checkout! Click here for more: Tara's FavesBy accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that the entire contents are the property of Tara Accardo, or used by Tara Accardo with permission.

Drop me a message or voice note!One major component of life after loss is experiencing feeling like we can't exactly relate to some people the same way we used to. Which makes sense, right? We've been through some major loss, some serious trauma, and that changes us! That quite literally changes the makeup of our brain. But fear not, my friend… all hope is not lost.Join me in this conversation about relating to others after loss and all this entails. Your gain today will not only be to hopefully walk away feeling more seen and understood, but we'll also talk about some ways that we can ease this sensation of feeling misunderstood or not related to after loss.And, how we can actually use and harness this lack of relation we experience to find growth within our grief (and life!). I promise you, we'll be going in a direction with this subject that you will not see coming!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook group: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastWebsite: https://lossesbecomegains.com/Grief Becomes Gains Online Course: https://lossesbecomegains.com/coursesDon't forget Welkin Memorials is giving you 10% off any urn with code LBG10 at checkout! Click here for more: Tara's FavesClick here to explore the book "Meet Your Soul" by Elisa Romeo, as mentioned in this episode: https://www.amazon.com/Meet-Your-Soul-Powerful-Connect/dp/140194342XBy accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that the entire contents are the property of Tara Accardo, or used by Tara Accardo with permission.

Drop me a message or voice note!I am SO excited to introduce you to this guest on the Losses Become Gains podcast. I’m chatting with Destiny Ràel, a Transformational Life and Grief Coach.I'm so grateful life brought Destiny into my orbit—it really did feel like destiny when we first got in touch. We honestly connected immediately, bonded over our losses, and have such a similar outlook on life in terms of creating gains from your losses and creating purpose from your pain and grief.Amongst countless other types of loss, Destiny’s beloved brother Joseph died two days after his birthday due to a rare disease called Aortic Dissection. Everything she has experienced has led her to the work that she’s in now.She is someone that is here to help you navigate through life, loss, and everything in between to find hope, clarity and, ultimately, yourself. In addition to coaching, she has also served as an Advocate, Speaker, Mentor and is a Certified Trained Crisis Counselor.I align with everything she does and embodies so deeply, she is truly just such an inspiring, crazy intuitive, really special soul that I’m so grateful to be partnering with on today’s episode and am so proud to call a friend.Where to find Destiny:Connect with Destiny on InstagramWebsite: https://www.destinyrael.com/The music of Destiny's late brother, Joseph Tobin: Joseph Tobin MusicInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastWebsite: https://lossesbecomegains.com/Grief Becomes Gains Online Course: https://lossesbecomegains.com/coursesDon't forget Welkin Memorials is giving you 10% off any urn with code LBG10 at checkout! Click here for more: TaSupport 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...

Drop me a message or voice note!”Healing”... what does this mean with grief, really? We’ll talk about that! But let's make one thing clear: the goal is not to be "healed", as though there's an end to grief or our pain. Healing is an ever-evolving process. Your gain from this is pretty simple: get an understanding of the expectations around healing your heart, and start taking small steps for yourself to tap into this healing journey you’re embarking on.Soon, you’ll be on your way to finding your happy again. And, I have four very useful tips for you today to get you started!I want for you to remember something important in case you need it today: it’s not selfish, it’s mandatory. This healing, this taking time for yourself, it’s mandatory. Let's tap into that together.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastWebsite: https://lossesbecomegains.com/Grief Becomes Gains Online Course: https://lossesbecomegains.com/coursesDon't forget Welkin Memorials is giving you 10% off any urn with code LBG10 at checkout! Click here for more: Tara's FavesBy accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that the entire contents are the property of Tara Accardo, or used by Tara Accardo with permission.

Drop me a message or voice note!In today’s chat, we'll explore what "moving forward" even means when it comes to grief. And, you’ll walk away with a step in the right direction in terms of how to begin moving forward. To understand what “moving forward” really means in the grief space. We may never have full acceptance of what we’ve lost, and we might not ever be fully be at peace. We’re going to have moments of strife and pain and reminders, because our grief ebbs and flows, too.Our grief evolves and we evolve. And you know what? That’s more okay than you might think. Because these people or these things that we’ve lost, they impacted our lives. Perhaps more than we possibly knew. When we lose them, that can be unsettling! You might always feel a bit unsettled after a loss.But what can and WILL happen, I have no doubt, is you’ll come to live a “new normal” and not allow your losses to get the best of you. You just have to know that, and other wonderful things, are coming your way and it is possible. It’s all about reframing your mindset, and we’ll dig way into that.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastWebsite: https://lossesbecomegains.com/Grief Becomes Gains Online Course: https://lossesbecomegains.com/courses By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that the entire contents are the property of Tara Accardo, or used by Tara Accardo with permission.

Drop me a message or voice note!The term "good grief" takes on new meaning in this episode as we explore where to even begin with our grief, and how we understand it. We'll take a step back and look at what "grief" and "loss" truly mean for us. Where to start feeling it. Where to start coping with it in ways that will actually stick.Think about it: we learn 911, we learn CPR, we learn emergency preparedness. We need to know these things that may or may not happen. But what IS inevitable? Death. You can’t postpone, cancel, or delete it from your calendar. It doesn’t discriminate. So why are we so unprepared? Let's talk about it.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lossesbecomegainspodcastWebsite: https://lossesbecomegains.com/Grief Becomes Gains Online Course: https://lossesbecomegains.com/courses By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that the entire contents are the property of Tara Accardo, or used by Tara Accardo with permission.
