In the second episode of the "Life After Loss" series, titled "Navigating the Waves," I explore the complexities of grief beyond the traditional models. With a focus on personal stories and insights, this episode delves into the non-linear, cyclical nature of grief, challenging the conventional five stages of grieving. I share my experience of becoming widowed at 24 and address the unexpected triggers of grief, like everyday sounds and smells.

The episode emphasises that grief is not a task to be completed but a journey to be lived through, offering listeners a compassionate, nuanced perspective on dealing with loss.

Tune in to gain deeper understanding and support for navigating your own grief waves.
