About this episode

In the wake of the devastating flooding in the Texas Hill Country, so many families and communities have been impacted by loss and grief. Whether you’ve experienced personal loss or you’ve joined in the collective heartbreak of watching the community suffer, we are all touched by grief. In this episode, I’m joined by Krista St-Germain, Master Certified Life Coach and expert in grief and post-traumatic growth. Krista shares what it really looks like to navigate loss, not just in the early days, but in the months and years that follow. She’ll share ways to recognize when you’re stuck in a “grief plateau,” along with a simple framework to start healing.
