Podcasts about grief recovery method

In this episode of the Feel Free Again Podcast, I sit down with Brian Magee, an accomplished grief recovery specialist and former funeral director from Alberta, Canada. Brian shares openly about his journey—from facing significant personal losses to discovering the profound impact of the Grief Recovery Method. Together, we delve deeply into how grief manifests beyond death, exploring its wide-ranging impact on life's significant changes and transitions. Our conversation also highlights Brian's innovative approach to integrating grief recovery support within the funeral home setting. We discuss the challenges faced by funeral directors and the hesitations many funeral homes have around adopting new grief support programs. Brian provides invaluable insights into how effective aftercare not only meets a crucial emotional need in the community but also greatly enhances the reputation and relational bonds of the funeral home within its community. We further address common misconceptions around grief, critically examining the well-known five stages of grief proposed by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, and discuss why a practical, emotionally-driven method often surpasses intellectual approaches in truly helping people heal. This episode emphasizes a clear message: unresolved grief requires active emotional processing, and Brian's insights offer powerful guidance on how to achieve emotional completion and healing.

The discussion starts with reflections on the significance of Elizabeth Kubler Ross's work on death and dying.

After her husbands death, Michelle found healing through the Grief Recovery Method, a structured program designed to help individuals process grief through practical exercises, emphasizing that healing is an educational, not therapeutic journey. The episode continues to explore various tools and techniques for dealing with grief, including addressing societal misconceptions about grieving.

Connect with Gwen: https://www.griefrecoverymethod.com/grms/gwen-russo-cherkovets As a grief recovery specialist, trainer, and former speech pathologist, I've walked the long road of trying to help others without the right tools. In this episode of the Feel Free Again Podcast, I sit down with Cole James to share the real story of how the Grief Recovery Method transformed both my practice and my life. Before discovering this method, I did everything “right” on paper—offering spiritual counseling, holding space, listening deeply. Yet the clients kept returning with the same unresolved pain. That's when burnout hit. What I needed was not more compassion—it was completion. Through this powerful method, I found the structure and emotional tools that traditional therapy never gave me. And once I saw what was possible, I couldn't turn back. ✅ In this candid conversation, Cole and I dive into: ✅ What makes grief recovery radically different from therapy ✅ Why professionals feel ill-equipped to handle grief ✅ How burnout often signals an emotional blockage in your clients ✅ And how a structured method can help them—and you—heal

We explore her journey from Ivy League dropout to full-time missionary, and how unresolved grief silently shaped her relationships—especially with her daughter. Through the Grief Recovery Method, Tammy unearthed the real source of her pain: not just death, but decades of emotional avoidance, especially as a mother navigating pre-menopause, international moves, and personal loss. I was blown away by Tammy's raw honesty and depth. She courageously shares how her healing journey didn't start until she truly looked inward—and how this method helped her reclaim the present. Her story is both gut-wrenching and inspiring. Whether you're a parent, griever, or someone seeking emotional clarity, this conversation will resonate deeply. Tammy also shares how she's now helping people process grief in Ukraine and Russia—amid an ongoing war—proving this method has global relevance. Don't miss the final segment where we discuss how unresolved grief robs us of the present moment—and how healing is possible.

If you've ever carried unresolved grief and never quite knew what to do with it, this episode is for you. In today's Feel Free Again Podcast, I sit down with certified grief recovery specialist Kelli Sheumaker, whose personal journey through traumatic brain injury and the death of her mother revealed just how deep grief can run. We talk candidly about the moments she never got to say “I love you,” the medical trauma she endured, and how grief shows up in unexpected ways—even decades later.   This conversation unpacks not just the pain, but the power of emotional healing through the Grief Recovery Method. Kelli vulnerability will resonate with anyone who's experienced loss, chronic illness, or that silent question of “Why do I still feel stuck?” She shares how the recovery process gave her peace with her past and a renewed purpose to help others do the same. We also dive into societal avoidance of death, the emotional impact on children, and why “complicated grief” is often misunderstood.   Connect with Kelli: https://www.griefrecoverymethod.com/grms/kelli-sheumaker

Listen in for wisdom, courage, and the reminder that your pain matters — and that healing is possible.   Connect with Casey: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/griefrecoverycasey/ Website: braveandco.com Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@griefrecoverycasey?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc

In this powerful episode of Feel Free Again, I sit down with my dear friend and grief recovery pioneer, Arturo Albin, to talk about life, legacy, and what it means to truly heal. Arturo shares his remarkable journey from being an industrial engineer to becoming a leader in emotional healing—bringing the Grief Recovery Method to Mexico and the broader Spanish-speaking world.   Together, we explore the pain of divorce, the loss of a child, and the silent heartbreaks so many carry. Arturo's courage in facing his grief—and his choice to turn it into a mission to help others—is inspiring and deeply moving. From losing his wife to building something lasting for generations to come, this is a story about redemption, healing, and emotional resilience. We also discuss how grief isn't limited to death. It includes divorce, estrangement, broken dreams—even the loss of a pet. And most importantly, we dive into how grief recovery tools allow us to not only survive, but to love and live fully again. Whether you're heartbroken, curious about healing, or looking to help others, this conversation will leave a lasting imprint on your heart.   More about Arturo: https://www.griefrecoverymethod.com/about-us/arturo-albin Arturo became involved with grief work when he volunteered at his parish to become part of their bereavement team. It was very rewarding, but he was not satisfied. He could listen to the grievers, but he didn't know how to help them. And then he discovered The Grief Recovery Method and went through extensive training with the Grief Recovery Institute, both in Mexico and in the United States.   At last he could guide people to help them work effectively on their emotional recovery. Arturo was so excited with his new Grief Recovery skills that he left a 30-year career in finance and systems and along with his wife, Alejandra, decided to start the Institute affiliate in Mexico to be able to reach more grievers to help them move beyond their pain.

Send Victoria a text message!In this week's episode, I share what I mean when I say at the end of every episode, "When you unleash your heart, you unleash your life." For me, it's more than a slogan; it's a belief. I navigated over 30 years of unresolved grief, resentment, and anger to achieve profound personal growth and self-realization. Healing is about unleashing one's heart to truly unleash one's life—a conviction born from addressing painful experiences and reframing and seeing those past experiences differently to benefit my evolution and growth. My initial skepticism could have stopped me from even giving the Grief Recovery Method a chance. By choosing to embrace the transformational framework, the Grief Recovery Method, I unleashed my heart. In turn, I unleashed my life. We can identify as broken hearts or unleashed hearts; the choice is always ours._______NEED HELP?National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255Crisis Text Line provides free, 24/7 support via text message.

In this heartfelt chat, I sat down with Rachelle Jones, someone who's not only a certified grief recovery methods specialist but also a dear friend who's been through the trenches of grief and come out stronger. We talked about her journey—how she found her way into the Grief Recovery Method and how it's been a game-changer for her and her husband, especially given his tough job in law enforcement. We dug into the real stuff, like how unresolved grief can quietly sneak into our relationships and mess with our communication and emotional health.   Rachelle shared some eye-opening insights on why it's so crucial for both partners to be all in when it comes to healing. We also touched on the sometimes messy world of parenting, managing expectations, and the importance of just being there for our kids as they find their way. This conversation left me with a lot to think about, and I hope it does the same for you.

Send Victoria a text message!This week, I had the privilege of hearing from Ed Owens, vice president of the Grief Recovery Institute, in a deeply moving episode of the Grieving Voices podcast. As Vice President of the Grief Recovery Institute, Ed's narrative isn't just about loss; it's about discovery—the kind that reshapes lives. From his military background to law enforcement tenure, he was schooled in emotional compartmentalization until life delivered its harshest lesson through his greatest loss: the death of his 3-year-old son, Ryan.This wasn't just a turning point for Ed; it was an unraveling—a catalyst that compelled him to seek healing beyond traditional avenues. The Grief Recovery Method didn't merely offer solace; it provided clarity and purpose, revealing insights into male grief often shrouded by societal expectations.Ed challenges us to look beyond labels like "toxic masculinity," advocating for empathy over division.

Send Victoria a text message!In this second heartfelt episode of Grieving Voices Season 5, I welcomed Dawn Michele Jackson, a multifaceted healer specializing in grief recovery. Dawn shares her personal journey through divorce and how it led her to the path of healing not just herself but others as well. With a background in nursing and now a self-published author, she discusses the importance of finding one's inner light post-trauma and transforming from merely surviving to thriving.Dawn emphasizes that grief is more than just about death; it encompasses all forms of loss, including divorce, which was a significant turning point for her. She candidly speaks about the initial devastation following her separation at age 30 with a 3 1/2-year-old in tow and how choosing to heal allowed her to rediscover herself beyond being a mom, nurse, and wife.This conversation delves into the complexities of co-parenting after divorce, particularly when shared children are involved. Dawn reflects on how adopting the Grief Recovery Method helped transform resentment into gratitude towards her ex-husband—ultimately leading to peaceful relations.If you are new to grieving concepts, you will find value in Dawn's explanation of cumulative grief and its negative impacts on life if left unaddressed. She advocates for using tools like the Grief Recovery Method as an evidence-based means for achieving emotional liberation from past hurts.Adding depth to our discussion, we explore how parental influences shape our perceptions around marriage stability and coping with familial changes during adulthood.Lastly, drawing parallels between professional burnout in healthcare settings due to emotional strain versus physical ailments among patients leads Dawn down memory lane—from leaving nursing after 30 years toward embracing full-time work with clients seeking solace from their own grief journeys.Key takeaways include:The universality of grief beyond death-related lossesPersonal growth through adversityThe transformative power of healing modalities like the Grief Recovery MethodEncouragement for listeners facing similar challengesInspiration derived from making bold life choices aligned with personal valuesThis episode serves as both an inspiration for those grappling with loss and guidance on accessing tools necessary for genuine recovery.RESOURCES:WebsiteBooksCONNECT:FacebookYouTubeLinkedIn_______NEED HELP?Support the Show.This episode is sponsored by Do Grief Differently™️, my twelve-week, one-on-one, in-person/online program for grievers who have suffered any type of loss to feel better.

Christine Cain's Podcast The Parable of the Persistent Widow 18 Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. 2 He said: “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared what people thought. 3 And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, ‘Grant me justice against my adversary.' 4 “For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, ‘Even though I don't fear God or care what people think, 5 yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won't eventually come and attack me!'” 6 And the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says. 7 And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? 8 I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?” Join the Widows Walking Challenge 10K Steps a day ⁠⁠here⁠⁠ Join the Widows Walking Challenge 5K Steps a day ⁠⁠here⁠⁠ Check out the protein drinks Michelle referred to ⁠⁠here⁠⁠ ( the best value is to either become a preferred client for $29 and get 20% off or use code ARBONNE10 to get 10% off The $29 fee is waived in the month of June!)

Trigger warning: This episode may contain triggering content for some listeners affected by child loss; please review the show notes to know if this episode is proper for you now.   As an empath, it can often feel like we're living in a world that's grieving hardship and heartbreak. This is why I'm grateful to sit down with Jenn Andreou, an Executive Coach and Grief Recovery Method Specialist. In her work, Jenn helps grievers who feel stuck in the pain of their losses to move through grief and take action to regain their wellbeing. Throughout the episode, we talk about living with grief and allowing yourself to feel pain, sadness, and sorrow instead of fixing or bypassing them. After living through two tragic losses, it took Jenn seventeen years to truly begin to heal and find her way back to joy. Why? Because while grief is emotional, we as a society often intellectualize it and don't allow ourselves to truly embrace and process our feelings. Jenn joins me for a heartfelt discussion on taking action (not the kind you may think), becoming more honest with yourself, and embracing the idea that it's okay for things to not always be good so you can heal and move forward.   Topics:   How to use the Grief Recovery Method to embrace and process grief instead of waiting for time to heal your wounds Uncovering the fact that society discourages us from feeling bad and normalizing the idea that it's okay to not always be okay How to make grief a more welcomed topic in your community and practice bringing curiosity instead of knowing, fixing or bypassing The simple ways in which you can become disconnected from yourself and how to connect more routinely with your inner world Insights on how to help your loved ones grieve and become a heart with ears   Episode Resources: Join us on Monday, June 10th at 12pm ET for our monthly Non-Networking Power Hour for Empathpreneurs with our UNBOUNDED Community for deep connections and meaningful support.   Connect with Jenn:   Website Instagram: @msjennaoconnor Facebook LinkedIn   Connect with Catherine: Apply to join the free Unbounded community, a vibrant group of empathpreneurs who are passionate about supporting each other on our entrepreneurial journeys.

Sales + grief might seem like an odd combination, but not once you listen to Hannah Wachter's remarkable story. A longtime ACORN student, Hannah's work on selling herself ON herself came into play at the most unexpected of times - the sudden loss of her sweet mother. This rich conversation with Krista + Hannah covers so many rich topics. From finding life after loss to connecting the dots in your life to find purpose to understanding why your message matters - you'll be sure to walk away with pearls of wisdom to use in days, weeks and months ahead. ----- Hannah has been coaching, encouraging, and building others up for more than fourteen years. With kindness and clarity, Hannah helps others turn their pain into purpose, cultivate healthy growth, and better navigate change. In essence, Hannah helps you recover or discover, empowering you to be your best self. As a seminarian turned makeup artist turned coach, Hannah serves as the gentle hand on your back encouraging you to step forward, look in the mirror, and see what others see in you. She is a gifted writer, speaker + singer, and is determined to use her voice to help others know and believe in their own value and worth. Recently, Hannah's mother died unexpectedly. Through courageously sharing her grief journey on social media, Hannah realized there were few spaces where grievers can exist without the judgment of others and society. Resolute, Hannah decided to provide that space herself, which led her to the Grief Recovery Method. Now certified, Hannah can better educate others about grief and help those suffering from loss to say goodbye to any pain, unmet hopes, dreams, and expectations, and hello to the fond memories and freedom of what was. Hannah holds a Master in Christian Leadership, a BA in Religious Studies, and is currently the Minister of Music at Pleasant Valley Church in Happy Valley, Oregon. In addition to her role at church and being an Advanced Grief Recovery Specialist with The Grief Recovery Method, Hannah was a Mindset Coach with The ACORN Method. Hannah has also written and published A Guide to Setting Boundaries in the Workplace with Madecraft via LinkedIn Learning. When Hannah's not working, she's kickboxing, laughing, singing, dancing, writing, reading, visiting local bookstores to buy more books than she needs, hanging with her hubby and kids, soaking up time with friends, or traveling the country to see her siblings, with whom she's very close.
