What if grief and joy don’t have to live in separate rooms? I’m joined by Kate Doerge, bestselling author of Reimagining Grief, certified grief coach, motivational speaker, and founder of Penny’s Flight Foundation.
Kate has experienced unimaginable loss, including her 16-year-old daughter Penny, yet the way she talks about grief is filled with so much life, love, and even laughter.
We talk about celebrating the people we’ve lost, staying open to signs, physically moving grief through the body, and turning pain into purpose.
This conversation gave me chill bumps on top of my chill bumps, and reminded me that carrying grief doesn’t mean leaving joy behind.
Highlights:
(06:43) - Grief on top of grief, and realizing, somehow, you’re still standing
(14:53) - “I can’t imagine.” Oh, yes you can. You just really don’t want to
(25:42) - Kate’s five actions for moving through grief instead of trying to “get over it”
(31:46) - Get moving, because sometimes grief needs somewhere to GO
(38:47) - Yep, grief and joy can absolutely sit at the same table
(45:50) - Owls, signs, synchronicities... okay, you seriously cannot make this stuff up
