Podcasts about grieving heart

If you've ever experienced a loss that changed everything, this conversation is for you. Grief comes in many forms–loss of a loved one, loss of a job, loss of a relationship, or simply loss of life as we want it to be–these things affect us. Deeply. In times like this we need help for our wounded hearts. Author, Lisa Appelo, knows this all too well. Lisa shares her powerful story of suddenly losing her husband and becoming a single mom to seven children overnight. Together, we talk about grief, healing, and the comfort only God can provide when life feels unbearable. Lisa offers practical wisdom for navigating loss, processing difficult emotions, and finding hope again when the future feels uncertain. Whether you're grieving yourself or walking alongside someone who is, I believe this conversation will encourage your heart and remind you that God is near to the brokenhearted.

In this profoundly moving episode of Radio Medium with Laura Lee, Dennis connects with his mother and a former partner, who step forward with loving yet firm guidance as he navigates grief, physical pain, and emotional isolation. Spirit acknowledges Dennis's profound loss, including the challenges of diabetes, neuropathy, limb loss, and phantom pain, while gently revealing how unresolved grief has limited his desire to move forward. This emotional reading also includes confirmation through Dennis's beloved dog, Sasha, who serves as a living reminder that spirit remains close and active in his daily life. Spirit reassures Dennis that he is not alone, that his loved ones have not left him, and that his life still holds purpose, connection, and meaning.This episode offers compassionate insight for anyone coping with loss, chronic pain, disability, or depression — reminding listeners that grief is not the end of the story, and that healing can begin with one small step.

"Your brain didn't break when your person died. It's just doing what it knows—trying to protect you from pain. But grief doesn't live in your brain. It lives in your heart." In this episode of Grieve That Shit, Sharon Brubaker, Certified Grief Specialist and founder of The Grief School, dives deep into one of the biggest truths about grief: you can't think your way out of it. After losing her nephew Austin, Sharon discovered firsthand that grief isn't logical—it's emotional. Your brain tries to reason, fix, and explain the unexplainable, while your heart just breaks wide open. That war between the head and the heart? It's exactly why you feel like you're spinning. This episode unpacks the difference between intellect, emotion, and sensation—and shows why healing can only happen when you stop trying to "figure it out" and start feeling it. Sharon shares the same lessons that inspired her book This Is Grief and walks you through how to finally calm your mind so you can listen to your heart. Because the truth is: your heart already knows what your brain keeps trying to solve. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why grief is emotional—not intellectual—and how that changes everything The silent war between your brain and your heart after loss Why logic and reason can't fix what's broken in your soul How thoughts like "Why didn't I go?" or "I should have done more" keep you stuck in pain What it really means to "drop into your heart" and let it speak Homework for You If you've been spinning in your thoughts, here's your assignment: Grab a sheet of paper and write down one question that won't stop looping in your mind—like "Why me?" or "Why didn't I answer the phone?" Now write your honest answer. Don't edit. Don't analyze. Just let your heart respond. Then underneath that answer, finish this sentence: "What I really feel is…" That's where your healing begins—not in your thoughts, but in your truth. Resources + Next Steps

A message on grief and hope from Psalm 13 

It may not seem like it now, but there is hope. If you still have breath, God is not done with you. So hold on, and when you can't, know that God is holding onto you. - Christine F.

Deuteronomy 15:7-15There is nothing in Scripture that says we should make personal gain our motive for giving. God doesn't want us to catch the vision of getting. He wants us to catch the vision of giving.“Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise. But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back. But love your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil.”Luke 6: 30-35 I. The Selfish HeartDeuteronomy 15:9 “Be careful not to harbor this wicked thought…” II. The Grieving HeartDeuteronomy 15:10 “You shall surely give to him, and your heart should not be grieved when you give to him, because for this thing the Lord your God will bless you in all your works and in all to which you put your hand.”Selfishness can attack us before we give, but grief can attack us after we give.When we get God's perspective on money – when we understand that God owns it all – it is easy to give it when He asks for it.III. A Generous HeartDeuteronomy 15:14 “You shall supply him liberally (generously) from your flock, from your threshing floor, and from your winepress. From what the Lord has blessed you with, you shall give to him.”IV. A Grateful HeartDeuteronomy 15:15 “You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God redeemed you; therefore I command you this thing today.”When we're grateful, we're generous. Genuine gratitude to God is a rare and powerful thing.

Although we may try to avoid having these difficult conversations, one thing that is certain is that we will all experience some form of grief during our time here on Earth. Today's episode is not only one that is dear to our hearts, but one that causes us to reflect and embrace the hurt. Join us as we dive deeper and discuss our experiences on grief with our very special guest Yollande Kadesi Kayembe, founder of the R.O.S.E organization. To those who are grieving we are praying for your peace, comfort, and for God's presence to be felt so heavily throughout this season.

61, Homicide Loss - LVM ADVNTGE Don't let the LOSS take over your MIND, use it to your ADVNTGE.Rebecca Benny was 17 and in high school the day she had to gather her friends and tell them her mom had been killed. She was closer to her father than her mother at the time, and she has been left with the task of figuring out her complicated relationship with her mother now as a motherless daughter. Besides gathering her friends that day to tell them the news, it wasn't typical of Rebecca to speak about her mother, Luz V Minda. Today she's 24 and has started a podcast in order to voice her own story and to be a voice for others experiencing homicide grief. Join Rebecca in her very first episodes and travel with her on her literal journey from the dark to the light. Rebecca began sharing her story from a couch in a dark room. 13 episodes later, she has started to show her face and has just released her first True Survivor Series sharing other homicide loss survivor's stories.Rebecca's Advice: That guilt should be on the person that committed the crime. Not us, because we didn't do anything wrong. It is important to keep their name going. Don't stop talking about them.
