Ask Rachel anythingParenting tweens and teens is challenging enough, but when someone in the family becomes seriously ill or dies, it can feel overwhelmingly difficult. In all honesty, we Westerners are terrible at talking about death, often avoiding it, so when it comes to talking with teenagers about the subject most of us don't feel equipped.Many who have suffered a loss, or are suffering a serious illness will tell you that friends often fall away just at the time when they are most valued, because they're embarrassed or uncomfortable about the situation.In this episode we draw on research, personal experience - and some incredible listener feedback - to discuss how to deal with a serious illness or death when you're raising a teen. We pass on some amazing tips that have made all the difference, and also some awful 'what not to do's'.The episode is dedicated to the wonderful mum, Sophie Baker and her loving husband and boys, who did an amazing job in very difficult circumstances.BOOKS:When Breath Becomes Air by Paul KalanithiThe Bright Hour by Nina RiggsYou Can Stop Humming Now by Daniela LamasBeing Mortal by Atul GawandeSmoke gets in your Eyes by Caitlin DoughtyThe Choice by Edith Eger Support for kids and young people who are bereaved:https://winstonswish.org/https://hospiceofnorthidaho.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Supporting-a-Teen-When-Someone-is-Seriously-Ill.pdfhttps://www.hospiscare.co.uk/how-we-help/advice-support/children-and-young-people/how-to-talk-about-death-with-children-and-teenagers/https://thegoodgriefproject.co.uk/https://yourteenmag.com/health/teenager-mental-health/how-to-talk-about-deathhttps://whatsyourgrief.com/helping-a-teenager-deal-with-grief-2/https://elunanetwork.org/resources/talking-to-teens-and-children-about-illness-and-deathhttps://www.strong4life.com/en/emotional-wellness/emotional-expression/talking-to-kids-and-teens-about-deathhttps://www.todaysparent.com/family/talking-about-death-with-kiSupport the showPlease hit the follow button if you like the podcast, and share it with anyone who might benefit. You can review us on Apple podcasts by going to the show page, scrolling down to the bottom where you can click on a star then you can leave your message. Please don't hesitate to seek the advice of a specialist if you're not coping.

Can animals truly communicate with us on a deeper, intuitive level—and are we capable of understanding them if we learn how to listen? In this fascinating and heartwarming episode, Lizette Flynn shares her work as an animal communicator, offering insight into the emotional and energetic connections that may exist between humans and animals. Drawing from her experiences, Lizette explores how animals may express thoughts, feelings, and even messages beyond traditional behavior, suggesting that communication can occur through intuition, energy, and heightened awareness. She discusses how this connection can help strengthen the bond between people and their pets, provide comfort during times of loss, and offer a new perspective on the inner lives of animals. This episode invites listeners to reconsider the relationship we have with the animal world. Are animals more aware and communicative than we realize? Can we truly connect with them beyond words? And what might they say if we could fully understand them? Join us for an uplifting and thought-provoking conversation that bridges the gap between species, challenges conventional thinking, and opens the door to a deeper appreciation of the animals who share our lives.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Losing my dog, Lala, has been one of the hardest things I've ever faced. As a diagnosed narcissist, I'm giving you an inside look at how I used to process grief versus how I'm handling it now. For years, therapy has been about stripping away the armor, and nothing tests that work like the loss of a "soul dog."Lala was a Jackabee (Jack Russell & Beagle mix) who taught me more about unconditional love than most people ever could. Today, I'm being honest about the "Narcissistic Numbness" I used to feel and the visceral pain I'm feeling now. If you've ever wondered if a narcissist can truly love a pet, or how therapy actually changes the way we feel, this video is for you.IN THIS VIDEO:The Old Me vs. The New Me: How I would have "minimized" this loss 5 years ago.The "Supply" Trap: Why pets are often the only creatures a narcissist feels safe being vulnerable with.Therapy in the Raw: The specific work I've done to sit with grief instead of running from it.Lala's Legacy: Honoring the Jackabee who helped me become more human.Connect with Lee:My Courses: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://courses.mentalhealness.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 1-on-1 Coaching Calls: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠All My Link: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://beacons.page/mentalhealness ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow on Instagram/TikTok: @mentalhealnesssIf this episode helped you gain clarity, please leave a 5-star review on Spotify!

Send us a text and chime in!For many people, losing a pet isn't just saying goodbye to an animal, it's losing a family member, a constant companion, and a source of unconditional love. And yet, that kind of grief is often minimized or misunderstood, leaving people feeling isolated and expected to “move on” far too quickly. The Meadows' Rio Retreat Center in Wickenburg is launching a new 5-day experiential workshop called “Led by Love: Healing Grief After Animal Loss,” created for people navigating the deep emotional impact of losing a beloved pet. The workshop offers something rarely discussed, the space to grieve openly, without apology or... For the written story, read here >> https://www.signalsaz.com/articles/wickenburg-retreat-offers-pet-loss-healing-program/Check out the CAST11.com Website at: https://CAST11.com Follow the CAST11 Podcast Network on Facebook at: https://Facebook.com/CAST11AZFollow Cast11 Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/cast11_podcast_network

Dane Moore is back to talk about Kyle Anderson's return, the bench mob's pecking order and ideal state, as well as his newishfound love of Survivor. It was a lot of hoops talk, which makes sense. We also talked about Ayo Dosunmu being attractive. We also talked about Jordan's cat Ford passing away, which ended in some gallows humor and I assure you he is grieving normally and he appreciates all the condolences and nice things people have said. Jordan also told me to tell you to look up Continuing Bonds Theory by Klass, Silverman, and Nickman, as well as Neimeyer's work on Meaning Reconstruction, and the Dual Process Model of Grief by Stroebe and Schut if you're curious to learn more about helpful grief theory that's helped him, especially in regards to pet loss. We love Dane, we love you, we love your pets. 

What does it mean to truly support clients—and your team—when a beloved pet passes away? Collin talks with Shannon Rigby, owner of Puppy Love Pet Sitting in Wimberley, Texas, about the emotional side of pet care and her work as a certified Pet Loss Grief Support Specialist. Shannon shares how her psychology background led her to this calling, how grief shows up for both clients and sitters, and the healthy ways to honor those feelings. They also discuss community engagement, team well-being, and creating resources that strengthen connection. This heartfelt conversation reminds us that love and loss are both part of the work we do. Main topics: Supporting grieving pet parents Emotional wellness for pet sitters Building community partnerships Turning compassion into business growth Healthy grief and healing practices Main takeaway: "The greater the love, the greater the loss—and it's not meant to be healed in a snap." In pet care, we see love in its purest form every day. But we also witness the heartbreak when that love is lost. Shannon Rigby reminds us that grief isn't something to rush through—it's something to honor. By allowing clients (and ourselves) to feel, reflect, and remember, we can transform sorrow into gratitude for the bond we were privileged to share.

Animal chaplain Kaleel Sakakeeny was overwhelmed by grief after the death of his cat Kyro. And even though pet loss is an incredibly common experience, Kaleel felt like he had nowhere to turn. So, he took matters into his own hands: Kaleel became an animal chaplain, an ordained pastor, and a pet loss and bereavement counselor. He also founded the nonprofit Animal Talks, which supports people who've lost a pet, and helps others become certified to provide counseling. Kaleel tells Sarah why the death of a pet can cut so deeply, and what we really grieve when we mourn our animal companions.

This week on Double A Chattery, we're opening up about one of the hardest love stories we live — loving an ageing pet. We're joined by Dr Alicia (Lissi) Kennedy, an end-of-life veterinarian and founder of Cherished Pets, who calls herself a “social-hearted vet”. Lissi talks about the grace of ageing pets, why the human–animal bond has grown so intense, and what a good death for a pet can look like. She explains her guiding principles for “when it’s time”, the role of euthanasia, how to involve children, and why aftercare and ritual (ashes, candles, small ceremonies) matter so much. Content note: This episode includes discussion of pet death, euthanasia and grief. Please listen gently. https://www.cherishedpetcare.com.au/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

⬇️ LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR GUEST KRISTEN ⬇️Some of you may know the story of Birdie's life (and if you'd like to hear about it, please see Season 1 Episode #23 https://youtu.be/nvyGI6XYgb4). She passed at the young age of 3, and it had such a toll on our family. She was diagnosed on my birthday, and just 4 days after we learned I was pregnant with our twins. It took many months for me to be able to look at pictures and videos of her without tearing up, and even now, 3 years later, I get emotional about her beautiful spirit and how she was taken from us so soon. With our other dog Kramer passing his 16th birthday, I am once again reminded of how short a dog's life is, and how special they get to spend it with us. Today's guest Kristen is a stay-at-home mom who started offering pet doula sessions to her community. We dive into our experiences losing our dogs and explore deeper conversations. I hope you enjoy our conversation. Warmest of regards, Jen GlaserHost of Dog Mom Podcast & Co-Founder of ZippyPaws—-----------------------------------------------—-----------------------------------------------

What does it really mean to grieve a pet—and how can we do it well? In this deeply moving episode, we talk with Koryn Greenspan, founder of The Parted Paw, about the often overlooked reality of pet loss and the profound emotional toll it takes. Koryn breaks down the distinctions between grief, mourning, and bereavement, and shares how anticipatory grief can offer a healthier path through the end-of-life process. We explore how disenfranchised grief silences many pet parents and why pet professionals need to show up better for their grieving clients. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone who's ever loved—and lost—a pet. Main Topics Anticipatory grief and emotional prep Disenfranchised grief in pet loss Using the quality-of-life scale Supporting clients after a pet's death Self-care and compassion fatigue for professionals Main Takeaway: “Everyone's grief is unique. People don't owe you an explanation for their grief… It's your job to show up for it in the best way that you can.” As pet professionals, we often witness clients go through the heartbreak of losing a beloved companion. We don't need the right words—we just need to show up. Whether that means a quiet moment, a handwritten note, or simply being present, your empathy matters. Grief isn't linear, and it's not our job to fix it—just to honor it. Let's be the kind of people who show up. About our guest: Koryn Greenspan is a professional Certified Pet Loss Bereavement Specialist offering Pet Loss Counselling Services, Professional Dog Trainer, Pet Care and Business Advisor. As the founder of The Parted Paw, one of the first pet loss bereavement support services in the country, she is committed to raising awareness about pet loss, disenfranchised grief, the support needed for people whose pets have passed, and helping workplaces foster empathy and understanding for grieving employees who are anticipating or currently grieving the loss of a beloved pet.

Grandpa Bill Discusses:Prayer- Coping with pet loss is a deeply personal and often challenging journey, and it's important to acknowledge that the grief experienced is very real and valid. Many people feel a profound connection to their pets, seeing them as cherished family members. When that bond is broken, the emotional impact can be just as significant as losing a human loved one.Pet loss grief can manifest in many ways, including:Sadness and Crying: This is a common and natural response to loss.Guilt: You might feel guilty about decisions made during your pet's illness, or if you believe you could have done something differently.Anger: This can be directed at the situation, the illness, or even at yourself or others.Loneliness: The absence of your pet can leave a significant void in your daily life.Denial: It can be hard to accept that your beloved companion is truly gone.Physical Symptoms: Grief can manifest physically as fatigue, changes in appetite, or difficulty sleeping.It's also common to experience a phenomenon known as disenfranchised grief, where society may not fully recognize or validate the depth of your loss, making it harder to find understanding and support.Navigating pet loss grief takes time, and there's no right or wrong way to mourn. #Understanding Pet Loss, #Grief,#Coping Strategies,

Welcome to a special "podcast takeover" episode. This week, Lindsey Whissel Fenton, creator of Speaking Grief and Learning Grief, steps in to interview Jana. Their conversation centers on Jana's beloved Boston Terrier, Captain, who died in December 2024 at the age of 15. Lindsey understands this heartache well, as her own sweet dog, Birch, died in May 2022. As a skilled interviewer and a thoughtful friend in grief, Lindsey was the perfect person to explore Jana's experience of loving and grieving for Captain.  Together, Lindsey and Jana delve into how Captain came into Jana's life, the complexities of caregiving for an aging pet, the difficult decisions surrounding their end-of-life, and the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways pet grief can be minimized or dismissed, by others and sometimes even by us.  This conversation weaves between the personal and professional, touching on: How Captain became a cherished part of Jana's life The physical and behavioral changes Captain experienced in his last two years  Navigating personal loss as a grief professional  The challenging dynamics of deciding when and how to say goodbye  Captain's last day  Jana's evolving relationship with Captain's belongings  Expressing grief through writing and sharing on Instagram (@Captain_the_Furpig) The struggle of making space for pet grief within a field primarily focused on human loss  How grief rituals evolve over time, and the importance of allowing ourselves permission for these changes  A quick content note: we'll be discussing end-of-life caregiving for a pet, including the decision-making process around euthanasia. We know these are tender topics, so please take care as you listen.  The resource we mention: Supporting Children & Teens After the Death of a Pet or Companion Animal Lindsey Whissel Fenton, MEd, CT (she/her) is an Emmy award-winning filmmaker, international speaker, and grief educator.

How do you keep your heart open to love after it's been broken apart by grief? Danielle LaRock was just 19 when her father died of a heart attack. In 2022, her partner Ian died suddenly. Then, in 2024, her beloved dog Blue died, and with Blue went many shared memories of time spent with Ian. The experience of loving and being loved by Ian opened up places in Danielle's heart that had closed down after her father's death.

#825. Arielle Vandenberg joins Kaitlyn for a heartfelt chat about her beloved dog, Stinky, who recently crossed the rainbow bridge. She opens up about the emotions, cherished memories, and what's been helping her through this tough time. The Vinos also sent in their own questions about pet grief, and Arielle shares what's brought her comfort. But it's not all tears!
