When we lose someone, we love, we often say we have a broken heart—but what if that's not just a metaphor?In her new book “The Grieving Body: How The Stress of Loss Can Be An Opportunity For Healing” University of Arizona Professor of Psychology Mary Frances O'Connor shares groundbreaking insights into the biological and physiological impacts grief has on our bodies. O'Connor reveals how profound loss can lead to serious medical conditions, from heart attacks to immune system breakdowns, and explains why grieving can make us more vulnerable to diseases like cancer, pneumonia, and even autoimmune disorders.Drawing on her personal experiences and extensive research, O'Connor outlines why our medical system—and society at large—needs to rethink how we support grieving individuals. She makes a powerful case for viewing grief not only as an emotional experience but as a medical event deserving careful monitoring and intervention, similar to pregnancy or chronic illness.
Send us a textWe'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.

The conversation in episode 7 explores the concept of disenfranchised grief, which refers to grief that is not acknowledged or recognized by society. Examples include grief over unmet expectations in parenting, miscarriage, the loss of a loved one during the pandemic, loss of a sibling, and the end of a marriage. The discussion highlights the judgment and lack of empathy that often accompany disenfranchised grief, as well as the importance of creating a relational home for grief. The hosts share personal experiences and discuss the complexity and longevity of grief, emphasizing that there is no defined timeline for healing contrary to popular belief. MC and Tracy reflect on the different stages of grief, comparing them to the growth and development of a child. They discuss the challenges and demands of early grief, the changes and adjustments that come with time, and the ongoing need for support and understanding. The conversation also explores disenfranchised grief in relation to the loss of older family members and the absence of mentors and role models.

Disenfranchised Grief...what is it and how do we handle it?Support the show
The reality for Black individuals and families living in the U.S. is that death happens more often and earlier on than for their white counterparts. In the last two decades, these higher rates of mortality resulted in 1.63 million excess deaths for Black Americans compared to white Americans. Doneila McIntosh brings her personal and professional experiences with this reality to her work as a researcher studying the intersections of disenfranchised grief among African American families. Disenfranchised grief occurs when a loss isn't recognized or seen as valid, often the result of stigma. The disenfranchisement of Black grief is rooted in racism, which influences both the disproportionate rates of mortality and the lack of support for grief and grief expression. Doneila McIntosh is a doctoral student at the University of Minnesota in Family Social Science with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy. Doneila has a Master of Divinity (M.Div.) in Theological Studies and a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology (M.A.). Prior to becoming a psychotherapist, she worked as a chaplain for nearly 10 years. We discuss: Doneila's current research on understanding the impact of disproportionate rates of death and grief in the African American community. Her personal and professional motivation to do this work. The desecration of sacred Black grief spaces. How structural racism leads to Doneila and other researchers having to “prove” the reality of disproportionate rates of death for Black people living in the U.S. The disenfranchisement of African American grief. How the language we use to talk about grief is rooted in culture and how that can be a strength. The gap in the research literature about Black and African American grief. Culturally specific interventions to support grief. How culture shapes grief expression. Doneila's work to become literate in the historical & current context of Black grief and the cultural strengths she uncovered along the way. How her family honors her grandfather's legacy.

We wrap up National Adoption Month with a discussion about disenfranchised grief and some highlights and lessons learned during 100 episodes of the Open Adoption Project podcast (so far). Disenfranchised grief is grief that is not recognized as valid by society, and is prevalently experienced in the adoption community. We talk about how those who adopt can better understand grief experienced by adopted people and first parents, and how this understanding can counter shame and create stronger bonds. We also share what our most downloaded episode is, and a handful of some of the most impactful interviews we've done since starting the show in 2021. We'll be back in the new year with our fifth season. Happy Holidays and thanks for learning with us!
There's a name for grief we don't feel like we're allowed to have or that is not acknowledged by society, it's called disenfranchised grief. It's what I've felt this week in the wake of the loss of Esther The Wonder Pig. I never "met" Esther and yet feel the deep sorrow as the result of her passing. I'm sure many of her 1.5 million followers do too. Disenfranchised grief is what you may feel for a patient of yours that dies, an animal that gets adopted from your shelter or a research animal you've had to euthanize. It's legitimate grief and this episode will help you understand it and yourself more.

Today I talk about disenfranchised grief, which is a type of grief that not a lot of people know about. I also talk about how loss by suicide relates to disenfranchised grief.

How do you integrate painful losses into your life while living? Grief is something we in the United States are known to do poorly. Perhaps it's the European decent that curved our culture's inability to feel feelings, perhaps it's industrial era-based where we learned that there's no time in our 40 hour work week to sit with grief, or perhaps our modern day fear machines (the media) have signaled to our bodies, 'It's not safe here - eject from your body.' Whatever got us here, grief is an important part of our learning to be resilient and self-compassionate. And it's part of the human contract with life — As Dr Susan David says, “Discomfort is the price of admission to meaningful life.” In this episode, I provide some education and philosophy on grief, the definitions, different types of grief. I also share about my year-long season of grief, showcasing how I found a place for grief, having successfully learned how to do it and how to integrate it. Grief is something we must all feel and move through in order to have the highest level of relationships with people we connect with and love. For, it is in our relationship to the self that we treat and extend to others.

End of life educator Carol Schoneberg is sharing wisdom about disenfranchised grief, the grief that society says isn't real, but we all experience. There are a lot of reasons someone's grief might be disenfranchised. Dysfunctional relationships where there was abuse, or former relationships like ex-spouses can be sources of grief that's not recognized by the people around us. That disenfranchisement makes us feel isolated, even invisible. Carol teaches us how important it is to have supportive friends or family. Creating rituals to acknowledge a loss can be a great coping mechanism. Validating the loss and recognizing its impact are beneficial in dealing with disenfranchised grief. Grief is grief. There's no right or wrong way to grieve. Each person has their own style of grieving. Connect with Carol Schoneberg and her grief counseling services at carolschoneberg.com.

How do we heal from painful experiences while holding onto our relationship with God? What about when the place we came to heal is the same place that has injured our hearts? There are many Christians who find themselves lost in loss. Healing is a path and without direction we will remain stuck. Marilyn Kriete joins the channel to share her experience of disenfranchised grief. She interweaves trauma into her story and describes how it creates a specific type of loneliness. We will be discussing her upcoming book "the box must be empty" as we navigate through her journey towards greater healing. *For those who are interested in her experience of the events that preceded and followed the 2003 Henry Kriete Letter, we discuss her experience in a new series called "Off the Record".

Disenfranchised Grief affects families who have incarcerated loved ones. When a family member is incarcerated, it is a loss to the family. Those outside find it difficult to openly acknowledge their feelings or seek public support. In this episode, learn the six factors contributing to disenfranchised grief and ways to alleviate the grief. Julia Lazareck interviews Allegra Pocinki, whose work focuses on racial disparities in the criminal justice system, specifically the impacts of incarceration for those "doing time on the outside."
