Grief is not something we would ever choose, and yet, at some point, we all find ourselves walking through it. Maybe it's the loss of a loved one, the shattering of a dream, a shift in relationships, or even the realization that life doesn't look the way we thought it would. Grief comes in many forms, and sometimes, we don't even recognize we're grieving.In this episode, I want to have an honest conversation about grief—what it is, what it isn't, and how, in the hands of our Shepherd, it can actually be a gift. I know, that may sound impossible, especially if you're in the middle of deep sorrow. But grief invites us to know God in ways we never would otherwise. It teaches us to lament, to remember, to heal, and ultimately, to trust that even in our pain, God is present and at work.If you're carrying grief today—whether it's fresh or something that's been with you for a long time—I hope this episode reminds you that you are not alone. The Shepherd walks with you through the valley, and even when you can't see it, He is making all things beautiful in His time.Grief can be a gift that reveals God's character.Lament is an essential part of processing grief.Grief is not just about loss; it's about love and value.Grief can transform us and deepen our relationship with God.God's comfort is most profound in our moments of grief.Grief allows us to remember and honor what we've lost.Healing comes from engaging with our grief.Grief can lead to personal transformation and growth.We are invited to grieve together as a community.Grief ultimately points us to hope and redemption.Chapters00:00 | Understanding Grief as a Gift07:02 | The Pain of Grief16:47 | Grief as a Sacred Tool27:02 | Grief: A Tool for Healing and Transformation

Grief is a deeply personal experience that affects each individual differently. In this episode of the Delgado Podcast, Dr. Jacob Sermeno, LCSW highlights the importance of distinguishing between adaptive grief, a normal response to loss, and complicated grief, which involves prolonged symptoms like avoidance, hyper-attachment, or significant daily impairment. Recognizing these differences helps clinicians provide tailored support to those struggling to process loss. Cultural factors and societal norms play a significant role in how grief is expressed. Jacob emphasizes the need for cultural humility, encouraging clinicians to create safe, nonjudgmental spaces where clients can process their emotions authentically. Whether navigating cultural expectations or personal barriers like suppressed emotions, clinicians can empower clients to grieve in ways that honor their experiences while promoting healing. Jacob also shares advice for those supporting grieving loved ones. Simple acts of presence, such as listening without judgment or offering a kind word, can provide immense comfort. He reminds us that grief is not linear and that it's okay to have both good and bad days. Whether you're a clinician or a friend, understanding and respecting the grieving process is essential to providing meaningful care. Conversation includes: The clinical distinction between adaptive and complicated grief. Signs of dysfunctional grief and when to intervene therapeutically. Strategies for clinicians to build rapport with grieving clients. The role of cultural humility in addressing diverse grief practices and expectations. How grief affects biopsychosocial functioning Addressing avoidance and hyperattachment in complicated grief presentations. Techniques to support emotional expression while maintaining professional boundaries. Practical advice for grief-adjacent individuals supporting loved ones or colleagues. Understanding the Kubler-Ross model: utility and limitations in modern practice. Encouraging self-awareness and self-compassion in the grieving process. About Dr. Sermeno Dr. Jacob Sermeno is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience addressing chronic mental health concerns, cognitive impairments, and aging-related challenges. His work spans end-of-life care in hospice and nursing homes, geriatric psychiatric program development, and mental health support within corrections. Jacob's research focuses on reducing recidivism among incarcerated individuals with Severe Mental Illness (SMI), where he has pioneered treatment and discharge planning initiatives for SMI-focused housing units in San Bernardino County. Committed to advancing the field, he aspires to a career in education to equip future professionals with evidence-based practices for working with vulnerable populations.

In this fascinating interview, Alyssa, an experienced executive coach, delves into how our bodies often signal what's happening beneath the surface. She explains that grief, being an internal experience, is something we may deny or ignore. Grief doesn't always stem from negative events—it can arise from positive changes too, or simply from losing something that once was. Ignoring grief doesn't mean it's resolved. Alyssa emphasizes the importance of recognizing these feelings and processing them. She also highlights the value of having a supportive community where you can share your emotions openly, helping you navigate through life's transitions with greater ease.

Sometimes, life isn't tied up in with a pretty bow. Twelve years ago, Kay and Rick Warren (The Purpose Driven Life; Saddleback Church) lost their youngest son to suicide. In this heartfelt episode, I chat with Kay Warren about navigating the profound grief of losing a child and what to do when our hearts and minds are filled with “Why?” or “What if?” Kay shares her journey after her son Matthew's passing, revealing how her beliefs were shaken but ultimately strengthened–and how ours can be, too. This episode is for anyone who has lost a loved one or wants to help someone who has.  We explore practical ways to support ourselves or our loved ones through grieving, and Kay offers some fresh insights (ones you've likely never heard) about what to do and what not to do in seasons of grief, especially during the holidays.  Kay's story highlights the coexistence of joy and sorrow, reminding us that moments of happiness can aid healing and that mystery and faith go hand-in-hand. Tune in for a moving conversation on loss, love, and the balance of joy and pain in rebuilding faith. Xo, Donna   Listen in to learn more!

What if we started seeing grief as a form of trauma—could it help us make sense of the confusing ways our mind and body react to loss? In this conversation, Debbie sits down with Meghan Riordan Jarvis, a psychotherapist who's spent her life helping people navigate the heartbreak of loss. She's here to talk about her new book, Can Anyone Tell Me? Essential Questions About Grief and Loss, and to share her personal and research-based wisdom on this tender subject. We look into the messy, complicated emotions that grief can bring—like anger, guilt, regret, and anxiety—and Megan offers simple, meaningful ways to cope. We also tackle the bigger picture: why we need more honest conversations about death and how we can show up better for each other in times of loss. We hope you'll join us for this meaningful conversation that might just give you a little clarity, hope, and comfort wherever you, or even the loved ones you are supporting, are on your grief journey.  Listen and Learn:  Why grief education is key to feeling less alone, less afraid, and truly understood How we can reconnect in the face of profound loss Loss, grief, and mourning: uncovering the nuanced definitions and how they shape our healing journeys How Meghan's two very contrasting losses shaped her approach to grief and healing The varying emotions of grief and why anger and anxiety might be more common than expected The shifting waves of loss, unexpected triggers, and lasting connections The idea of signs from loved ones Could the signs we receive from loved ones beyond death be more than just coincidence?

In this episode of Healing with Worth, hosts Janine and Naomi delve into the profound topic of grief, particularly as it relates to healing from betrayal trauma. They discuss how grief manifests in different stages, especially following a "D-Day"—a moment of shocking revelation about a spouse's betrayal. They emphasize the immense loss one feels, not only of trust in a partner but also in oneself, others, and even in God. Janine and Naomi outline the grief process using the well-known stages identified by Elizabeth Kübler-Ross, including denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. They highlight that these stages are not linear and often overlap, with emotions like anger often masking deeper feelings of sadness and fear. The hosts stress the importance of connection in healing, warning against isolation, which can hinder the recovery process. They also introduce the idea that betrayal trauma is a form of emotional abuse, intensifying the grief and complexity of healing. As the episode closes, Janine and Naomi hint at exploring additional aspects of the grief cycle, such as shock and obsession, in future episodes. They encourage listeners to acknowledge their grief, embrace the healing journey, and take the necessary steps to move forward, however gradual they may be.

In this episode, Clint Davis and Brandy Walker discuss the topic of grief. Brandi shares her personal journey with grief and how it led her to become passionate about helping others navigate through it. They define grief as the emotional response to loss, which can include various types of losses such as death, divorce, career changes, and more. They emphasize that grief is a complex and individual process, and the duration of grief can vary depending on factors such as the intensity of the relationship to the loss and personal resilience. They also discuss the societal challenges in dealing with grief and the importance of providing support and understanding to those who are grieving. Grief is a complex and universal experience that can be triggered by various types of loss. It is important to acknowledge and validate the emotions of those who are grieving, rather than trying to fix or minimize their pain. People often struggle with knowing how to support someone who is grieving, but offering a listening ear, a comforting presence, and practical help can make a difference. It is crucial for the church to create a supportive community where people feel seen, heard, and understood in their grief. Unhelpful statements and actions can exacerbate the pain of grief, so it is important to be mindful of what we say and do. Grief can have physical and emotional consequences if not processed and addressed, including physical illness, irritability, sleep disturbances, and strained relationships. It is important to seek support and process grief in order to move towards healing and find meaning in the loss. Grief is a lifelong journey, but with time and support, it is possible to find healing and remember with love rather than pain.

Send Victoria a text message!Grief isn't merely an emotion; it's a profound energy that demands reflection and immersion into our deepest feelings. But too often, our intellect and ego stand as gatekeepers, preventing the deep emotional healing we desperately need.In this week's solo episode, I speak of the body as a compass through loss. Grief tells us when to pause and feel deeply if only we stay grounded enough to heed its guidance. Neglected grief is insidious—it can manifest into physical ailments or emotional turmoil.Key Points Discussed:Grief's Energetics: I compare grief to a body of water that overwhelms us and emphasizes the importance of allowing ourselves to feel deeply rather than intellectualizing our emotions.Physical and Emotional Connection: Our bodies and emotions have a visceral understanding of loss. The Impact of Unprocessed Trauma: How past traumas, like sexual abuse or physical violence, can lead us to dissociate from painful experiences and how this affects our present life choices.The Opportunity for Growth Through Grief: While it might be hard to hear, especially during times of suffering, there is potential for growth through processing our grief effectively.Searching for Episodes by Loss Type: I encouraged my listeners to explore previous episodes categorized by types of loss, such as widowhood or parental loss, via the blog's search function.Rituals and Recovery Methods: I highlighted the importance of rituals and community support in grieving processes and suggested engaging in my "Do Grief Differently" program as a way forward.Unleashing Painful Emotions: I shared my own transformative experience where acknowledging all forms of grief led me to release intense emotions that had been pent up inside.If you've ever felt lost in your grieving process or know someone who does—remember my voice echoing softly amidst the noise: "Healing is possible. Your emotions are valid. And most importantly—you're never alone on this journey toward reclaiming your heart after loss."RESOURCES:Grief Recovery_______NEED HELP?National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255Crisis Text Line provides free, 24/7 support via text message.

Marla received her master's degree in clinical psychology from Pepperdine University. She shares her passion for her work in mental health counseling and touches on her own personal experience about shifting from being a stay-at-home mom to a counselor following a divorce. Marla discusses her approach to dealing with grief and loss in clients, which she shares as an inescapable human experience. She elaborates on the stages of grief as proposed by Elizabeth Kubler Ross, shedding light on David Kessler's addition of the sixth stage, 'reconstruction/rebuilding'. Emphasizing the subjectivity of the grieving process, Marla recommends being compassionate, patient, and welcoming toward one's emotions throughout.
