In this episode, I delve into a topic that many of us have pondered: "Is there a correct way to grieve?" Grief is an intensely personal experience, unique to each individual, and it manifests in myriad ways. I discuss the common misconceptions about the grieving process, such as the idea that there's a "proper" way to grieve or specific stages everyone must go through.

We explore cultural, societal, and personal influences on our perceptions of grief and how they shape our expectations. We'll talk about the famous Kubler-Ross model and its limitations, emphasizing that grief doesn't follow a neat, linear path. You'll hear about the various emotional, physical, and behavioral expressions of grief and the importance of respecting each person's unique journey.

Join me as I discuss the importance of listening without judgment, supporting others in their grief, and giving yourself the grace and time needed to navigate your own grief. Whether you find solace in talking about your feelings or prefer solitude, remember that your way of grieving is valid.

Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of the multifaceted nature of grief and how we can better support ourselves and others through these challenging times.
