How to Cope with Grief and Loss

BetterHelp
About this episode

Grief is universal—but it rarely feels that way when you’re in it.


On this episode, Haesue sits down with writer and podcaster Misty Stinnett to unpack what grief really looks like: messy, unpredictable, and often very lonely. Misty shares the story of losing her father suddenly in her twenties, and the very different experience of losing her aunt years later, a loss that came with time to say goodbye. Along the way, she opens up about somatic therapy, the pressure to “perform” progress, and why grief sometimes teaches us how to love harder.


Haesue is then joined by therapist Dr. Sreela Roy-Greene for a grounded, practical conversation about navigating grief in everyday life. From how to handle grief at work, to simple somatic exercises you can try at home, this episode offers compassionate guidance for anyone who’s struggling—or supporting someone who is.
