Summary
Welcome to season 7! In this episode, I'm diving into the journey of navigating the year of firsts after the death of my friend, Poppy. I explore how grief impacts our personal and professional lives, the ways disassociation can emerge as a coping mechanism and can actually be beneficial, and the unexpected lessons I've learned in healing and personal growth. You’ll also hear for the first time on the podcast what it has been like starting a business in the midst of the most emotionally weighted time of my life. Key Topics Covered: • Grief and the “Year of Firsts”: What navigating the year of firsts has been like for me, even with 8 years of grief under my belt already. My unexpected pleasant experience of Poppy's 1 year anniversary and what it has taught me, once again. • Coping with Disassociation: Understanding and sharing how disassociation as a coping mechanism during intense grief has kept me afloat and it's positives to me. • Building a Business During Grief: My insight into starting a business while navigating personal loss. It feels really good to be back and I hope you enjoy this episode and the season ahead!
