Episode Summary In this heartfelt episode, we sit down with Gretchen Starnes, Family Aftercare Manager with Network for Hope (Louisville), an organization that also supports families after the loss of a loved one through organ donation. Gretchen shares the deeply human side of her work—walking with families through the grief process, offering comfort, connection, and compassion in the wake of profound loss. We explore how the gift of life through donation can bring a measure of hope to unimaginable sorrow, and how Gretchen and her team help families navigate that journey with care and grace. ✨ Episode Highlights Gretchen Starnes discusses her role as a Family Aftercare Manager at Network for Hope. She describes the Aftercare Department's mission to support donor families and ensure their needs are met with compassion and understanding. Gretchen shares her personal journey, beginning as a Family Support Worker and transitioning to Aftercare, highlighting the critical role of empathy in her work. She reflects on working with grief and the full spectrum of emotions that come with it, reminding us: “There's nothing wrong with you when you're grieving.” Andi asks Gretchen about the myths and misconceptions surrounding grief and bereavement support. Gretchen explains that support systems often fade after the first year of loss and shares her experience that, for many, the second year is even harder. The organization offers 15 months of ongoing support through mailings, in-person meetings, and online resources. Families find healing and comfort in sharing stories, memories, and legacies of their loved ones. Donor families play a vital role in encouraging and supporting newly bereaved families through direct connections. Gretchen talks about the emotional challenges donor families face when reaching out to donor recipients and how the organization offers guidance through that process. They reflect on the powerful impact of the Holiday Honor Walk, which brings donor families together to foster connection, support, and healing. Gretchen emphasizes the importance of saving lives through organ donation and the value of being surrounded by a strong, supportive community. She also highlights the importance of self-care, a healthy team environment, and emotional support to navigate the difficulties inherent in this deeply meaningful work.

In this tender episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty is joined by author and poet Cyndee Dhalai, also known by her pen name Fay Allian, for a heartfelt conversation on navigating the heavy, often silent path of grief. Through her lived experiences and profound words, Cyndee shares how healing begins not by moving on, but by moving forward—with memory, meaning, and love. She opens up about the moment her grief turned into poetry, and how loss became the beginning of a new chapter. About the Guest:Cyndee Dhalai, writing under Fay Allian, is the author of Grief is the Price You Pay for Love and Pieces of Me. Her journey through rejection, illness, and profound personal loss has shaped her into a voice of resilience and reflection. With a poetic soul and a survivor's spirit, Cyndee helps others honor their grief while rediscovering their purpose. Key Takeaways: Grief isn't about “getting over” but integrating love and loss in balance. You must acknowledge, accept, and agree with your loss to truly begin healing. Writing became a lifeline for Cyndee—it was her way to speak with herself and transform pain into purpose. Grief is personal, unpredictable, and deeply complex—but it also teaches us how deeply we can love. Honoring memories through rituals or memory boxes can be a powerful healing practice. We are not broken—we are becoming. Life goes on, and so can we, with compassion and grace.

My guest today is author and performer Colin Campbell. In 2019, Colin and his family were driving near Joshua Tree when their vehicle was T-boned by a drunk and high driver. Colin and his wife were in the front seat, and their two teenage children were in the backseat. His 17-year-old daughter, Ruby, and 14-year-old son, Hart, were killed in the crash. From the excruciating grief and suffering, Colin wrote his latest book, "Finding The Words," and his one-man shitshow. He looks directly in the face of rage, grief, denial, and trying to live when living does not make sense. This book shines a bright light on all corners of what people may experience through deep grief. It is not only a way for people to feel understood or seen but for supporting friends and family to know how better to support the people grieving. Each situation is personal, and there is no perfect science, but Colin does a beautiful and thorough job addressing many of the scenarios people may encounter. He shares some of the things they did, like keeping a “hate us” journal and writing an email before you head back to work on some ground rules. Colin addresses dealing with “firsts” and holidays. He shares that you are never out of the woods but can find ways to keep living and maintaining relationships while still honoring those that you have lost. Colin speaks of his and Gail's journey of fostering and adopting children. His courage and humor are both inspiring and shocking. His work is stunning. The dedication and love he and Gail have for Ruby and Hart shine eternal.

Whether you have lost your job, your identity, a friendship or a loved one...loss and grief will universally impact us all at some point. So how do we deal with it? Whats the right thing to say to someone who is struggling right now? How can you move on when you feel like your world has been turned upside down?  Lo is joined by certified master life coach and grief expert Krista Saint Germain to answer your questions and share perspective with a thoughtful conversation about death, grieving and healing.  When Krista's husband was killed by a drunk driver in 2016, her life was completely and unexpectedly flipped upside down. After therapy helped her uncurl from the fetal position, Krista discovered Life Coaching, Post Traumatic Growth and learned the tools she needed to move forward and create a future she could get excited about — now she coaches and teaches other widows so they too, can love life again. Today she joins Lo to speak candidly about the right and wrong things to say to someone who is experiencing loss, why saying "time heals all wounds" does more harm than good and what the "6 stages of grief" got wrong about the human experience.
