serafina Episode 40

TW: death, grief, suicide & religious shame around suicide (time stamp 37:27-44:15), losing a mother, cancer, anxiety about death, loss of a pet, divorce, trauma & triggers 


This week we have the absolutely phenomenal Lou Pennisi of @the_grief_project . We have an amazing, raw, and honest conversation about death and grief. Grief is something that so many people feel so much anxiety towards and so many others feel so misunderstood through the process of grieving.  Lou explores so much of this in this episode in such a gentle and empathetic manner. It was so encouraging to listen to her, and as someone who suffers from intense death anxiety, I walked away from this conversation feeling so much peace. 


If you want to learn more from Lou and walk through grief with her, you can find her on IG @the_grief_project . She has some AMAZING resources on her page and is an amazing resources for anyone grieving, trying to support someone through grief, or even someone, like me, seeking to educate themselves more about grief!
