Podcasts about healing after loss

Grief doesn't always arrive when we expect it.Sometimes it's a song on the radio, a photograph, or a memory that suddenly brings a wave of emotion crashing in.This guided meditation isn't about fixing, understanding, or making grief smaller. It's about creating space and allow yourself to move through it one breath at a time.Whether your loss is recent or years old, grief has a way of showing up when it needs our attention. When it does, you don't have to fight it. You don't have to push it away. You only need to breathe and let the wave move through. We didn't plan for this. But we're here. And for now, that's enough.When grief shows up uninvited, press play.Send us Fan MailFor those who have reached out asking how to support Adrienne and her family during this time, click here to donate.

This week on The Journey, Kevin is joined by Heather Hackman for an honest and heartfelt conversation about family, community, grief, and carrying love forward after loss. Heather shares about her life in the Rockford area, her upcoming wedding and event venue, and the importance of staying connected to the community. She also opens up about the significant losses her family has faced, including the pain of traumatic loss and suicide, and how those experiences have shaped the way she supports others. Together, Kevin and Heather discuss the complicated questions that come with grief, the importance of remembering people for how they lived rather than how they died, and how memories, nature, faith, family, and community can help people keep moving through difficult seasons.

You can do everything “right” and still wake up wondering who you are. When your identity has been stitched to relationships, responsibilities, and everyone else's expectations, a major life change can leave you feeling emotionally numb, stuck, and exhausted. We get real about that moment and why it's more common than most of us admit.We talk about how solo travel can become a practical path to self-discovery, not as a glamorous escape, but as intentional time away that pulls you out of survival mode. Cheryl shares her own turning point after divorce, why a simple solo road trip created the solitude she needed, and how the goal is not to forget your life for a week but to remember who you are at the core.You'll also hear concrete tools you can use right away: a phone-free reset, time in nature to quiet your brain, and journaling that works even when your thoughts feel messy. We explore how joy and laughter can return in small moments, and how faith can feel clearer when you finally stop living under constant noise.If you've been telling yourself you “just need a vacation,” this is your sign to choose something deeper. Listen, share this with a friend who feels lost, and subscribe and leave a review so more women can find the freedom to rediscover who they really are.Coaching InvitationIf you're feeling drawn toward solo travel but unsure where to begin, this is something I support women with through 1:1 coaching. Together we can explore what kind of travel experience fits your season of life and create a thoughtful plan that reflects the woman you are becoming.https://cherylbeckesch.com/workwithme/Support the showhttps://www.cherylbeckesch.comhello@cherylbeckesch.comInstagram @solotraveladventures50

Ep 103 | Kari Davis came on the show to talk essential oils and non-toxic living—and then got beautifully, wonderfully real about grief, faith, and rebuilding a life from scratch.In 2015, Kari's husband passed away suddenly. She was 38, with three kids ages 4, 9, and 11, and a life that had just changed completely. What she discovered in that season is something I think a lot of us need to hear—that the tools you've already built into your home, your faith, your essential oils, your commitment to living clean, those things don't just support your physical health. They hold you together when everything else falls apart.We talk about what it looks like to create a calm, safe home for kids who are grieving. We talk about the emotional side of essential oils that most people never explore. And we talk about how Kari found her way back—to herself, to joy, and eventually to love again.If you've ever felt like the non-toxic lifestyle you've worked so hard to build was somehow not enough when life got hard, this one is for you.

What do you do when life suddenly falls apart?In the final message of our study through the Book of Job, we explore one of Scripture's most powerful stories of suffering, perseverance, and restoration. Job's journey takes him from unimaginable loss to a deeper intimacy with God, revealing timeless truths about faith in the midst of hardship.Using the imagery of a 9:01, 9:02, and 9:03 moments—from the Oklahoma City National Memorial—this message examines how believers can navigate seasons of pain, disappointment, grief, and uncertainty while holding tightly to the faithfulness of God. We'll discover why suffering often moves us from simply knowing about God to truly knowing Him, how forgiveness becomes part of the healing process, and what biblical restoration really looks like.Whether you're walking through a difficult season yourself or helping someone else through theirs, this message offers hope that God is still at work—even when the story doesn't make sense.In this episode: What the Book of Job teaches about suffering and God's sovereignty  How pain can deepen our relationship with God  The role of repentance, surrender, and forgiveness in healing  Why restoration doesn't always mean replacing what was lost  How God can bring purpose, hope, and redemption out of hardship  Practical encouragement for navigating life's "9:02 moments" No matter what chapter you're in, God is still writing your story.

What happens when life completely shatters the future you thought you were supposed to have?In this deeply moving episode of Casa De Confidence, Julie DeLucca-Collins sits down with author, former nun, end-of-life doula, and recovery advocate Gina Economopoulos for a conversation about grief, faith, addiction, healing, and learning how to rebuild after devastating loss.Gina shares her incredible journey from growing up in a loving Greek and Italian family, to joining a convent for 12 years, to losing her mother to cancer, surviving heartbreak, navigating alcoholism and recovery, and ultimately discovering her purpose as an end-of-life doula.This episode is emotional, raw, compassionate, and deeply human.If you have ever struggled with:grief and lossaddiction or recoveryfaith and spiritualitycaregivingfear of deathrebuilding after heartbreakfinding purpose after pain…this conversation will stay with you long after it ends.

Grief and grieving aren't really the same thing. The stages of grief happened before death—through fear, anticipation, exhaustion, denial, and watching life change in real time. What came after wasn't stages. It was grieving.In this week's episode, Adrienne and Campbell talk about anticipatory grief, surviving the aftermath of loss, and the messy, nonlinear reality of learning to live after someone dies.Send us Fan MailFor those who have reached out asking how to support Adrienne and her family during this time, click here to donate.

The Missing Piece Masterclass | June 1st Many bereaved mothers are still moving through pregnancy loss feeling unseen, unsupported, or expected to "move on" before their nervous systems have ever truly processed what happened. And many practitioners are doing their absolute best… while quietly sensing there is still something missing. The medical system calls it a medical event. Traditional training calls it grief. But pregnancy loss is trauma. And trauma lives in the body.

Some stories stay with you, not because they're dramatic, but because they're honest.In this conversation, Shelby sits down with Vivian Moyo, a trauma-informed life coach, to talk about what it really means to heal after deep loss. Vivian shares her experience of losing her mother at a young age, growing up without her father, and navigating layers of grief that followed her into adulthood.What stands out isn't just the pain, but the patterns that formed around it. People pleasing. Overgiving. Losing yourself while trying to take care of everyone else.They talk openly about how trauma can shape identity, relationships, and emotional habits, and what it looks like to slowly come back to yourself. Not through quick fixes, but through awareness, boundaries, and doing the uncomfortable work of facing what's been avoided.There's also a strong focus on emotional sobriety. Not just staying away from alcohol, but learning how to sit with your feelings without escaping them.In this episode, you'll hear about:• The impact of early childhood trauma and unresolved grief • How people pleasing and overhelping can become coping mechanisms • The role of creativity as a tool for emotional healing • Letting go of relationships, habits, and identities that no longer fit • Building boundaries and learning to choose yourself • What emotional sobriety looks like in everyday lifeThis is a grounded, real conversation for women in recovery, sober curious women, and anyone working through trauma, loss, or major life transitions.About the Guest Vivian Moyo is a qualified life coach and trauma-informed therapist who helps individuals heal from their past, overcome emotional challenges, and build a life rooted in clarity and confidence.

In this powerful episode of the Hear My Heart Show, Camishe “Cam” Golden shares her journey of navigating grief, healing, and rediscovering herself after the loss of her husband.After experiencing deep loss, Cam had to rebuild her life, redefine her identity, and choose herself again—all while holding onto her faith in God.This conversation dives into:• Healing after loss• Grief and identity shifts• Choosing yourself after heartbreak• Faith during difficult seasons• Rebuilding life with purposeIf you've ever experienced loss, felt like you had to start over, or struggled to find yourself again—this episode will meet you right where you are.

Overcoming Grief Through Creativity and PurposeGuest: Ksenia MerckGrief can arrive in waves—unexpected, overwhelming, and deeply personal. In this moving episode, we sit down with Ksenia Merck, an artist, architect, creative storyteller, and publisher, who shares how she navigated profound loss and transformed grief into a meaningful act of love.After the heartbreaking loss of her mother, Ksenia was soon faced with another devastating blow when her husband, Bill, was diagnosed with cancer and later passed away. Bill left behind an unfinished manuscript. Rather than letting his words fade, Ksenia made it her mission to bring his work to life.Through her vivid illustrations and posthumous publication of Ghostflower, Ksenia honored Bill's legacy in a deeply personal way. As she immersed herself in the manuscript, she recognized pieces of their shared life reflected in the characters and experiences within the story. In many ways, the book became a love letter from Bill to Ksenia—and she responded with a love letter of her own through art.In addition to publishing the book, Ksenia created a companion journal designed to help readers reflect, process, and internalize the themes woven throughout the story. The journal offers space for self-exploration, healing, and personal meaning—an invitation to engage with grief rather than avoid it.Ksenia shares how embracing a creative project became a vital part of her own healing journey. She gently reminds us that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to grief and no set timeline for healing. Instead, she encourages those who are grieving to:Find purpose and meaningHonor the life and legacy of their loved oneExpress grief in a way that feels authenticKeep moving forward, one step at a timeThis episode is a tender reminder that while grief changes us, it can also open the door to connection, creativity, and transformation.

Send us Fan MailYou can feel “fine” on the outside and still be white-knuckling your way through life. That's the quiet tension Elena Box is unpacking as Ode to Joy shifts into a new season on the art of letting go, a practice she also calls “practicing death while fully alive.”We talk about why resilience isn't only about staying strong. Sometimes strength is releasing what was never yours to control in the first place. From Elena's work as a shamanic practitioner and death doula, a pattern keeps repeating: the things we struggle to let go of at the end of life are often the same things we cling to every day in relationships, motherhood, identity, and the stories we tell about who we're supposed to be. That's where the real work begins, not with willpower, but with honesty.Then we get practical. Control isn't the problem, it's the strategy. So what are you protecting yourself from feeling? Elena names the emotional roots beneath avoidance grief, uncertainty, powerlessness, rejection, shame, loneliness and not being chosen and shares a vulnerable story about returning to acting through a community theater audition. The twist is the takeaway: the goal isn't to be chosen, it's to choose joy. You'll also learn a simple 30-second nervous system friendly practice to help you pause, name what you feel, and stay with it long enough for your life to open back up.If this resonates, subscribe, share the episode with a friend who's been holding it all together, and leave a review so more people can find the show. What feeling are you most resistant to experiencing right now?✨ THREE ELENA TRUTHSYou are not avoiding your life—you are avoiding a feeling within itControl is not your problem—it is your protectionThe way you practice feeling now is the way you will meet life later

On this episode of The CJ Moneyway Show, CJ sits down with Dr. Lynn Banis, a transformational coach and advocate who helps widows move from isolation and heartbreak into lives filled with connection, meaning, and renewed purpose. Dr. Banis knows grief firsthand. Within a span of three years, she experienced the devastating loss of her mother, her younger brother, and her husband.

They also explore the emotional difference between telling stories and sharing them, and why that distinction matters when we're trying to understand the people we love. The conversation moves through generational trauma, personal healing, and the importance of perspective when reflecting on parents and family history. Nick shares his own grief journey after losing his father and how reframing the past changed the way he understood his relationship with him.

Send a textResilience doesn't always look like powering through. Sometimes it looks like turning the lights down, telling the truth about what your body is doing, and letting yourself be held long enough to finally let go.We sit down with Andonia Fthenakis, a multidisciplinary artist and integrative healing arts practitioner specializing in sound and vibrational therapy. Together, we unpack how ritual and sound healing can help women rebuild inner authority, especially when life feels like it's collapsing from the inside out. We talk about why authentic release matters, what it takes to create nervous system safety, and how community practices like moon circles give us a way back to ourselves through movement, breath, voice, and vibration.We also get practical about how to begin if you're new to this world. What should you look for in a sound bath or spiritual practitioner? How do you use discernment when you're in crisis and just need help? And how do you reconcile earth-based tools like crystals, incense, and ceremony with a religious background without turning any path into dogma? We share grounded ways to listen for “true north,” care for your energetic hygiene, and step into spring with real cleansing, including a simple but powerful burning ritual for releasing what you're done carrying.Andonia also shares a defining resilience story: choosing a home birth without family approval, holding steady in her choice, and reclaiming “my body, my choice” as a lived spiritual practice. If you're craving more trust in yourself, deeper community, and a more embodied relationship with healing, this conversation will meet you there.

Life doesn't prepare you for what happens after your parents are gone.In this episode, Kenny, Taylor, and I have a raw, vulnerable conversation about life after losing parents, and what it means to redefine “normal” when there's no one left above you anymore.For me, it's the reality of having no parents and no grandparents left. For them, it's navigating life knowing that safety net doesn't exist the way it once did. We talk about the quiet moments no one warns you about: the grief that shows up randomly, the weight of becoming the elder, the responsibility that shifts without asking, and the question so many people are afraid to say out loud—now what?This isn't a clinical conversation about grief. It's real life. We talk about love, loss, legacy, fear, gratitude, and how death changes the way you see time, family, and yourself.If you've lost a parent. If you've lost both parents. If you're trying to figure out who you are after loss. Or if you're living in that strange in-between space where nothing feels the same anymore...This conversation is for you.Not enough people talk honestly about death. We are.

In this deeply personal episode, I open up about a 3 AM realization that brought three haunting words to the surface: "So much blood." I share the heartbreaking story of losing my first son, Andre, at 22 weeks, and how that trauma connects to the biblical account of the woman with the issue of blood.Listen as I introduces my new short story, Healing Hem: The Minine Miller Story. Whether you are suffering from the loss of a child, a chronic illness, or a situation that seems hopeless, this episode is a reminder that you have an anchor.

In this deeply moving episode of Versions of Healing, host Deborah Moffatt sits down with certified grief coach, speaker, author, and healer Angela Clement for an honest and compassionate conversation about grief, loss, and spiritual awakening. After losing her husband of 35 years to cancer, Angela's life was forever changed. What followed was not just heartbreak—but a profound transformation. Through her own journey of bereavement, Angela discovered that grief is not something to "get over," but a sacred pathway that can lead to deeper self-understanding, purpose, and healing. In this episode, Angela shares: What life looked like before loss—and how grief reshaped her identity How grief can become a spiritual awakening rather than a life sentence Why resisting grief can prolong suffering, and how surrender brings healing The role of community, validation, and being truly seen in the healing process How to support grieving loved ones without causing unintentional harm Releasing guilt around joy and learning to live fully again after loss Gentle encouragement for those currently walking through grief This conversation is for anyone who has loved deeply, lost painfully, and is searching for meaning, peace, and hope on the other side of loss. ✨ There is hope—even in the darkest moments. Angela reminds us that healing is possible, joy can return, and you do not have to walk this journey alone.

What happens when the worst thing you've been afraid of actually happens—and you're still standing? In this episode of Typology, I sit down with songwriter Brad Warren—an Enneagram Six, a man in long-term recovery, a husband, a father, and someone who has walked straight through unimaginable grief and come out the other side with humility, humor, and hard-won wisdom. Brad is the kind of person who tells the truth without posturing, who can laugh at himself without diminishing himself, and who understands—deeply—that fear doesn't disappear just because you name it. But naming it does change the game. We talk about the Enneagram Six's instinct to scan the horizon for danger, to rehearse conversations that never happen, and to catastrophize not because they're weak—but because they care. A lot. Brad shares how losing a child forced him to face his worst fears head-on, and how recovery, faith, and accountability helped him learn the difference between imagined catastrophe and lived reality. There's a kind of quiet courage in the way he describes trusting God—not a God who's looking to smite him, but one who's patiently inviting him to rest. Along the way, we explore humor as both a survival strategy and a spiritual practice, the surprising connection between humility and laughter, and how Sixes learn to move from fear-driven vigilance to faith-filled presence. We also touch on marriage, loyalty, religious deconstruction with gratitude instead of bitterness, and the life-saving power of people who are willing to tell you the truth when your mind is lying to you. This episode is funny, tender, honest, and deeply human. It's about fear—but it's even more about trust. And what it looks like, day by day, to choose it anyway.   ------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Brad Warren Brad Warren is a Nashville-based songwriter and artist best known as one half of the hitmaking Warren Brothers.

Send us a textWhat if the destination could walk beside you today? We dive into a living, breathing practice of becoming—one that honors grief, invites your future self into the room, and remembers what your inner child always knew. Set against winter's slow rhythm and a tender anniversary of loss, we explore how to “take the result as the path,” a tantric insight that transforms identity work from a someday project into embodied, daily choices.I share how early motherhood, creative ambitions, and the honest fatigue of life all meet this practice. We focus on orientation over overhaul: five mindful minutes in the morning, a mantra repeated on a walk, and tiny cues that change posture, breath, and presence. You'll hear how descent work—supported by rituals like a home sauna for grief—prevents spiritual bypass and deepens resilience. Instead of pushing through, we cultivate meaning while staying with what is raw and real.Along the way, we revisit inner child threads, future-self embodiment, and shamanic perspectives on elder wisdom already watching our path. You'll get clear journaling prompts to surface the one aligned step for this week, plus language you can use when doubt gets loud. This is practical spirituality for people who want to become themselves on purpose: compassionate, grounded, and a little braver each day.If this resonates, follow along, share with a friend who's cocooning, and leave a review so more listeners can find their way to this work.

Today we dive deep into the often-unspoken "downside" of being too strong after the loss of a spouse. This episode explores what happens when widows feel pressured to always put on a brave face for their families—and the hidden costs of doing so. We talk about the importance of letting go of the constant need for strength and to make space for true healing.3 Main Takeaways from today are:It's Okay to Show Vulnerability: Many widowed moms are always trying to be strong for the children, but need to realize that allowing them to see pain could help their healing, too. Modeling vulnerability gives permission for others—especially children—to process their own feelings.The Cost of Suppressing Grief: How striving to "just endure" and pushing down emotions is not sustainable. Carrying unprocessed feelings can lead to numbness and anxiety, making true healing much harder.Strength Isn't Always What Heals: While resilience is important, authentic healing comes from allowing yourself to grieve, mourn, and feel—instead of simply performing strength for others. It's crucial to make time to face grief, ask for support, and let go of the guilt that so many widows carry.Tune in for this honest conversation that reminds us strength doesn't mean ignoring our own pain—and that real healing begins with permission to be vulnerable.Get the latest workbook in the Widow 180 Workbook Series, The Let Go Of Guilt Workbook today and start releasing the burden and weight of the guilt you've been carrying.

We're back, family.

Grieving the loss of someone you love? You're not alone—and you don't have to navigate that pain without hope. In this video, we walk through 3 compassionate, biblical steps to help you process grief in a healthy and meaningful way: don't force healing, spend time with people who understand, and try to see God in the pain. With honesty, empathy, and Scripture, this video is for anyone who feels stuck, numb, or heartbroken. Whether you're grieving today or preparing for tomorrow, these words are for you.

When your child went to heaven, the world saw one loss — but your heart knows it wasn't just one. It was friendships that faded when people didn't know what to say. It was family relationships that shifted when everyone grieved differently. It was dreams, routines, and the sense of who you were before everything changed. Grief doesn't stop at the moment of loss — it ripples into every part of life. In this episode, we're uncovering the collateral damage that most grieving moms never talk about — and the tender ways God begins to rebuild what feels beyond repair. In this episode, you'll discover: What the Bible shows us about God's timing when He seems silent in our pain Why the hidden losses beneath your child's death matter — and how naming them brings healing How to rebuild when faith feels different and relationships no longer fit What it means to live restored, not the same, but redeemed You don't have to keep pretending you're okay, friend. Press play — and let's talk about how God meets you in the wreckage and starts rebuilding your heart, one piece at a time. Grief Mentor Services 1:1 Grief Mentor Session  A faith-centered hour to steady your heart, find peace and clarity, and leave with real tools and next steps. I pray over you before we even speak..

You know Paula Joye as someone who ran Australia’s biggest women’s magazines—and as the expert in skincare, style, and wellness that she undoubtedly is. But today? We're not talking about glossy covers or celebrity interviews. Today, Paula is sharing the story that breaks us all open - losing your mum. Two years ago, an ordinary Tuesday night became the night that split Paula's life into 'before' and 'after'. In this conversation, she's opening up about that phone call, the impossible reality of learning to exist without the person who literally made you, and why grief feels different when you're stuck in the middle - caring for everyone else while falling apart yourself. This is about the messy, complicated reality of mourning whilst keeping your public face on. About how loss completely rewrites your priorities. And how Paula found the strength she didn't even know existed. You can follow Paula Joye on Instagram and find her beauty book Glow Up here.

Episode Summary: In this powerful and raw episode of Healing Starts With the Heart, grief specialist Sharon Brubaker asks a deeply uncomfortable—but necessary—question: What if the pain isn't the problem… but the key to your healing? Sharon breaks down why so many of us are still stuck in our grief—not because we're doing it wrong, but because no one ever taught us how to feel the pain instead of managing it. From performative grief to inherited patterns, she shares how unprocessed pain keeps us in a holding pattern of burnout, resentment, and silence. You'll learn how to stop performing, start feeling, and allow grief to finally move through you—instead of staying trapped inside your body.

On today's episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, I am joined by Laetitia Felix @mindset_bodyandsoul, a fertility mindset coach who shares her deeply personal and powerful journey through infertility, loss, and ultimately conception. After experiencing three ectopic pregnancies and an early miscarriage, Leatitia was told IVF was her only option—but she knew in her heart there was another path. In this vulnerable conversation, she opens up about how slowing down, healing her nervous system, and connecting to her spiritual self helped her conceive naturally—against the odds and through the same fallopian tube doctors advised removing. We also explore spirit baby communication, the emotional toll of unexplained infertility, and how reclaiming your inner wisdom can be the most radical act of self-love. This episode is an invitation to stop, listen, and trust the messages your body and spirit may already be sending you. Key Takeaways: Laetitia Felix conceived naturally after three ectopic pregnancies and an early loss—through the same tube doctors recommended removing. IVF was presented as her only option, but she chose to explore inner healing and spiritual connection instead. Emotional processing, mindset work, and womb healing played a major role in restoring her health and fertility. Connecting with her spirit baby gave her reassurance, peace, and a sense of divine timing. Fertility healing isn't one-size-fits-all—trusting your intuition and calming the nervous system are foundational. Guest Bio: Laetitia Felix @mindset_bodyandsoul is a certified Fertility Mindset Coach based in London, originally from France. After navigating her own challenging path to motherhood—including multiple pregnancy losses—she now supports women on similar journeys through her holistic Mind, Body, and Soul approach.

Former nurse and certified death doula Kacie Gikonyo shares the story of how caregiving from a young age led her to a career focused on end-of-life care and support. After years working in long-term care and witnessing the challenges and heartbreak of death on the front lines — especially during the COVID-19 pandemic — Kacie chose to become a death doula. She now trains others worldwide through her online Death Doula School. Kacie opens up about the emotional toll of witnessing lonely, unplanned deaths, the gaps in the healthcare system's approach to dying, and the ways in which death doulas restore humanity and dignity to this final chapter. She also discusses the importance of grief education, advance directives, and compassionate presence for patients and their families.This conversation invites listeners into a vital, often overlooked part of the grief journey and offers hope that through intentional care and presence, death can be transformed into a more meaningful and peaceful experience for all.GIVE THE SHOW A 5-STAR RATING ON APPLE PODCASTS!
