The car hydroplaned and collided with another car, killing Janna.Tamara became isolated in her grief and felt people had turned away from her. She responded by writing a poem about the importance of hugs:If You See MeIf you see me, do not run . . .I know that talk is not much fun.I know your hearts are sure to tug,But all I need is just a hug.After her poem was published in the local paper, many people approached her, saying they'd read it, and then hugged her.Sixteen years later, in 2013, Tamara started Healing Hugs. This nonprofit organisation assists with funeral-related services or other expenses. For example, when Tamara learned that, for a number of complicated reasons, a child did not yet have a headstone, she offered to provide one for his grave.About this week's guestTamara Gabriel is a massage therapist. She works with her husband, who is a psychiatrist in his medical clinic. They've been together for 23 years, married for 19, they are happily married and living in Arizona, a dream they've always looked forward to together.Support the showFind support: Offers - free and paid Support the show: Become a supporter of the show!

Richard and I first met as colleagues during a year-long holistic counselling course. Over the months, we not only connected through the rich and layered material being taught, but also on a more personal level. What immediately stood out to me was Richard's thoughtful, inquisitive nature—his ability to question what many simply accept as truth, and his willingness to dig deeper into the human experience. I've always appreciated the way he sees the world, with both curiosity and compassion. His perspective brings depth and nuance to conversations around healing, and I'm grateful to have him here today to share his insights into grief, trauma, and the transformative potential of truly being with what is.About this week's guestDr. Richard Blake holds a PhD in Transpersonal Psychology and was the lead investigator on the largest randomised controlled trial ever conducted on Conscious Connected Breathwork. He specialises in using altered states of consciousness—including breathwork, nature immersion, plant medicine, and ketogenic nutrition—as tools for deep trauma healing and nervous system regulation. A passionate advocate for evolving the field of mental health, Dr. Blake believes in moving beyond relying solely on medication and talk therapy to embrace holistic, somatic, and biohacking-based approaches. His work is grounded in both rigorous scientific research and personal experience.As the co-host of the RUNGA Radio podcast, he also emphasises the critical role of intentional community in healing and personal transformation.IG: @the_breath_geekWebsite: www.runga.coGlobal Professional Breathwork Alliance: https://breathworkalliance.com/Support the showFind support: Offers - free and paid Support the show: Become a supporter of the show!

I first heard about Colin through a former guest who was deeply moved by an article he had written. Her words piqued my curiosity, and when I finally read Colin's piece, I immediately understood why—it was powerful, honest, and deeply human. We later crossed paths through mutual colleagues, and it became clear that we shared not just a passion for helping others navigate grief, but also the personal experience of child loss. That shared bond drew me to connect with him more personally, and I knew I wanted to invite him onto the podcast. Colin brings a heartfelt and courageous voice to conversations around grief, and I'm honoured to have him here today to share his story, insights, and the wisdom he's gained on his journey through unimaginable loss.About this week's guestColin Campbell is a writer and director for theatre and film. He was nominated for an Academy Award for Seraglio, a short film he wrote and directed with his lovely and talented wife, Gail Lerner. He has taught Theatre and/or Filmmaking at Chapman University, Loyola Marymount University, Cal Poly Pomona University, and to incarcerated youth.

Some friends rush in while others quietly slip away, and sometimes the most unexpected people become your anchors through the storm.This deeply human exploration of friendship during grief introduces us to the powerful metaphor of "firefighters" and "builders." Firefighters are those who show up immediately during a crisis with urgency and dedication. They bring meals, stay up with you through sleepless nights, and hold space while you fall apart. Builders arrive later, bringing tools, patience and steady presence to help reconstruct your world when the initial flames have died down.What's particularly illuminating is recognising that few people serve effectively in both roles. This understanding helps release unrealistic expectations of our support network while appreciating the unique contributions different friends make to our healing. We explore the unexpected connections formed through shared grief—relationships that transcend small talk and connect soul to soul. These profound bonds often form quickly with people we might never have met otherwise.We also delve into the painful secondary losses when friends disappear after trauma, the complex grief of mourning relationships with people still living, and the concept of "shelving" friendships—temporarily pausing rather than permanently ending them. The most valuable companions are those who sit beside us without trying to fix us, who witness our pain rather than trying to solve it. If you're navigating changing relationships through grief or supporting someone who is, this episode offers both validation and a framework for understanding these complex social dynamics.

He has been married to Lindsay for 40 years and has three grown-up children and five grandchildren. His life changed significantly when Lindsay died suddenly nearly two years ago. Steve was a client of mine for several years following the heartbreaking, sudden and unexpected loss of his Lindsay. Steve's journey through grief is exemplary because he diligently put himself out to understand grief, to learn to live with it and integrate the loss of his companion of a lifetime into a meaningful life. I invited him to share his story because it offers much insight.When we began working together, Steve was recently widowed. From the beginning, he wanted to grow not because of his loss but despite it and embrace life yet again. Over the time we worked together, I've had the privilege of witnessing his incredible transformation—how he embraced his own grief and walked alongside the grief of his three adult children. We worked through the difficult emotions, and he ultimately rebuilt his life in a way that honors his late wife's memory while also opening himself up to new love.Support the showFind support: Transforming Your Grief Course Support the show: Become a supporter of the show!

Betsy and I were connected through Kiley Hanish, whom you might remember from our recent "Grieving Parents: A Decade Later" series. When Kiley introduced us, she mentioned that Betsy and I share a passion for supporting those navigating grief and trauma and a deep appreciation for somatic approaches to healing. "You two speak the same language," Kiley said, and she couldn't have been more right.Betsy's work dives into the body's innate wisdom and ability to guide us through some of life's most challenging moments. Our conversation promises to explore themes of resilience, connection, and the transformative power of listening to the body. If you're curious about how somatic practices can support healing after loss or trauma, you'll want to lean in for this one. About this week's guestBetsy Winter is an experienced mind-body coach and somatic practitioner known for her effective methods in helping individuals transform profound loss and unresolved trauma into deep healing and embodied change. She believes in understanding individuals rather than pathologizing them, viewing each person as the expert of their own experiences. Her client-centred approach is aimed at those seeking self-discovery, deep healing, and sustainable change. Betsy is also a key contributor to the pregnancy and infant loss community, significantly involved in the creation and growth of RTZ HOPE's support groups, retreats, and provider resources. Her work is deeply influenced by the brief life of her daughter, Eliza, who was diagnosed with a severe heart defect and trisomy 18 at 31 weeks and stillborn at 41 weeks, and by her own journey of uncovering and healing from layers of unresolved complex trauma from early childhood neglect and abuse.Website: betsywinter.com/IG: @betsywinter.mbcFB: Support the showFind support: Transforming Your Grief Course Support the show: Become a supporter of the show!
