Podcast appearances and mentions of sarah nannen

In today's podcast I interview Tami Millard, who shares with us her grief and healing experiences after the sudden death of her husband, Kyron, and what it was like to raise her teenage daughter who was also grieving. Shortly after her husband's death, Tami returned to the workplace briefly before the COVID lockdown which further complicated how she and her daughter grieved. During our interview, we explore Tami's efforts to learn about grief, the different ways she processed her feelings, and where she is now in her grief and in her life, almost 4 years after her husband's sudden death. Key points: Tami introduces her personal mission, which is to increase awareness of the whole self, specifically the social emotional aspects of who we are as individuals. She takes a whole self-approach to her grief and describes the multiple efforts she engaged to explore her feelings, connect with her inner thoughts, and monitor the relationship between her grief and the impact it had on her ability to parent, work and meet the other responsibilities in her life. After Kyron's death Tami began to investigate grief; she read about it and wrote about it. She turned to her faith, relied on her support systems and used her internal beliefs to guide her, and help her cope with the most difficult experience of her life. Tami reflects on her learnings and thought processes in grief. She shares that she is now stepping deeper into carving out her identity, figuring out who she is as an “I” instead of a “we” and envisioning the next chapters of her life that will include the essence of Kyron and her previous existence. In my podcast I share an excerpt from Sarah Nannen's grief manifesto that was meaningful to Tami during her healing process: “I remain open to learning from my pain. I remain open to experiencing true joy. I remain open to experiencing longing. I remain open to practicing gratitude. I remain open to knowing that gratitude and longing are allowed to walk hand-in-hand. I trust that the depth of my pain is not a reflection of the way I honor you, my life is. I remain open to receiving what comes next on this journey of life, knowing what has been will always be part of my story, and therefore, me.” Please join our Facebook group “Talking about the Podcast Untethered with Dr. Levin.” I have included a sample of Tami's writing along with a short video and family pictures in the Facebook group.

In this second part of our best-of series, we talk with Sarah Nannen. With four children under 6 -- the youngest just a few months old -- Sarah's life was upended as both a mother and a wife when her husband, an Air Force fighter pilot, was killed in a training accident. A former naval officer herself, she understood how to navigate through the material and logistical details of the tragedy, but needed to learn how to move through the emotional upheaval of instantly becoming a widow and a single mother. In this episode, she tells BEYOND THE CRUCIBLE host and Crucible Leadership founder Warwick Fairfax that she needed to lean into her pain to build a new and hope-filled future. Today she helps others who have been rocked by crucible experiences find the emotional strength to not be defined by their tragedies and setbacks. "There is more to your life," she says, "than the thing that happened to you."   To learn more about Sarah Nannen, visit www.sarahnannen.com   To learn more about Crucible Leadership and to sign up for regular email updates from Warwick Fairfax, visitwww.crucibleleadership.com

Sarah Nannen says that grief and celebration are not incompatible.

After losing her husband to a military training accident, she fought for joy for herself and her four children by moving beyond surviving.

Long ago, way back in one of my college classes on death and dying, the professor told us that our death rituals -- the funeral, visitation, etc. -- were our ways of "reweaving the cloth of our community" after a loss. Grief has a process.  It is our internal response to loss, that is about how we move through and beyond that loss. Yet in our culture, we tend to have an impatience with grief and the grieving.  With the best of intentions, we sometimes push people to move through their grief.  And we push ourselves to move through our grief. We want those grieving to find happiness again.  And as we grieve, we want to stop hurting. Which often only serves to disrupt grief, prolonging or curtailing the healing that needs to come after a loss.  In our attempts to "speed it along," we slow it down or cut it off. My guest on this episode, Sarah Nannen, knows this first-hand.  With 4 young children, Sarah was widowed when her active-duty husband died in a training accident. In the aftermath, Sarah had to follow her own instincts to find space for her grief... and then she found herself once again among the living. Since then, Sarah has been helping others do the same.  She wrote a book, Grief Unvealed, and helps others to find empowerment as they process their own grief. Who is this episode for?  If you are alive... you!  Because every single one of us will be (or have been) confronted by loss.  Every single one of us will (or has) pass through grief. Listen below.

Sarah Nannen got the worst news of her life on a sunny day in 2014: her husband, Reid, had been killed in a military aviation accident. With four kids in tow, Sarah began walking the unexpected road of widowhood. Today, we're talking about how the reality of death in the military often looks like "compartmentalizing the elephant," how breaking the news of a death to kids is really the first of many conversations, and how faith in the aftermath of loss is more about actively hoping than it is about any religious doctrine. Also this week, I'm sharing the concept of self-abandonment and reading a passage from my new book Permission to Grieve.

Everyone has it--that special something that you feel so attached to, that you hold dear, that completes you. Be it your loved one, your job, or the organs in your body–if they vanished your life would turn upside down, and you’d feel entirely misplaced. Sarah Nannen, grief management specialist and life coach for widows, shares how in the midst of devastating grief there’s a chance to become even more whole than before--if only you seek the light amongst your deepest pain. Through courageous conversations in Sarah’s coaching workbook and her upcoming podcast, she invites widows to honor their stories of what's been, while moving with clarity towards living the life of their new dreams. As the author of Grief Unveiled, Sarah’s dynamic background as a yogini, birth doula, naval veteran and mother allows her to integrate the deepest wisdom and thoughtful practices into a healing experience that's accessible as it is powerful and transformative. Be bold enough to take a journey that’ll forever change your life! Key takeaways: The right now. You’re in this deep, rough patch and you’re on constant repeat that everything’s okay. In periods of grief you take big breaths, keep busy, and do everything you can to move on--it’s natural--but there’s another way. Start by asking yourself this ONE question . . . [7:21]. The purposeful intention. As a culture, we treat grief like it’s a thing that’s just happening to us. In the end, we’re left still broken, still left with things to say and feel, unaware of the realness that the moment offered. Here’s the kicker: there’s empowerment in grieving. The SECRET to finding it is . . . [11:16]. The messy days. Through transition, there’s a lot of ups and downs, good days and bad days. Sarah calls it, “this space in between no longer and not yet.” What does this phase look like and how do you get by? The BIG eye opener is this . . . [16:22]. The needed approval. On any given day you know what you want, what you need, and what you feel--so why do you insistently get in your own way? It’s not an easy answer but there are simple changes you can make so happiness--and healing--can find you. Look for this RED FLAG the next time self-judgment kicks in . . . [22:50]. Tune in and turn the volume up for a dose of inspiration and life lessons. You're never more than One Idea Away from a whole, new reality.

Today's guest recently published her first book, Grief Unveiled, and I've been looking forward to having her on the show since the idea for this book was just a seedling. I remember being on the phone with her and saying she must message me as soon as it was ready to be alive in the world so we could talk about it on the show. Grief is a deeply personal, intimate, and tender topic, and Sarah comes from a place of wanting to rebel against grief "as we know it." Sarah is a veteran and military widow with four children, who found herself seeking a solution that didn't exist. Her perspective on grief is that it doesn't have to only be about survival or stress management, and that it's entirely possible to create a thriving life (and not dishonoring or disrespectful to anyone's memory). This is what she's done, and in today's episode she's sharing her story, her experience, and how she now helps other widows through the experience as well. It's a fascinating and delicate conversation - if you're currently grieving anything or anyone in your life right now, please be extra gentle with yourself as you listen and stay close to your own heart.

Join Maggie McReynolds of The Author Incubator as she interviews author Sarah Nannen on the writing and publishing of her book, Grief Unveiled: A Widow's Guide to Navigating Your Journey in Life After Loss. When Sarah started with her book, she didn't realize that she was going to write it three times and that she had to step out of real life and make sense of the writing process by checking into a writing sanctuary.  Given the difficulties she encountered in putting her thoughts onto paper, it was not hard for her to focus on the subject as she's both a widow and grief coach, so she knew what she needed to share. All she needed was a clear path to finishing the book, which was provided perfectly by The Author Incubator.  Read more and download the transcript: Sarah Nannen on The Author Incubator
