Grief - it’s more than dealing with the death of someone we love. And, it’s yet another place we often fear to tread. So, let’s go there.
Welcome to this episode of Midlife Unfiltered - a podcast about unapologetically embracing the Season of Me.
In this episode, join co hosts Anita McLachlan and Erica Webb as they explore the landscape of grief in midlife and beyond. You will hear:
> An exploration of the multifaceted nature of grief; how it extends beyond death to encompass various life changes and losses.
> Anita’s and Erica’s personal experiences with grief in the context of having a parent with dementia.
> How grief intertwines with love, memory, and identity.
> The importance of acknowledging and leaning into grief with self-compassion.
We’re so glad you’re here. It’s time to live life on your terms. It’s time for Midlife Unfiltered.
