Episode 11: Trish Throop talks grief, loss, & other emotions when a parent's life or health changes
Change is tough to navigate... it's a special kind of tough when you are an adult watching a parent (or two) navigate their own aging, declining health, or facing a move they don't want. Tough on the adult kids, and tough on the aging parents as well... just in different ways.
We're talking with Trish Throop about losses of many kinds when it comes to eldercare and change.

Episode 10: How the body holds grief... with Soma BodyWorker Chad Kelderman
The body knows. The things you may have pushed from your consciousness, the things you've dampened down, the things you've ignored, sometimes for years or even decades -- the body has its own memory, and it doesn't forget.
In this episode of Heart Healing from Loss, Chad Kelderman of SOMA Bodywork talks with Grief Recovery expert Wendy Sloneker about how the body holds grief, even grief you may think you put behind you. We know that touch can release deep emotions: think of the power of a hug on a bad day, or a high five in celebration, a kiss, an arm around the shoulders. Now imagine the healing power of touch and manipulation by someone who understands that connection. Do your joints burn? Is your chest tight? Do your neck and shoulders just ache? Of course there can be physical reasons for all these feelings, but discounting the emotional causes can mean locking yourself in for suffering physical and emotional pain longer than you should. Listen to the episode, then find relief with Chad Kelderman at SOMABodywork.net and Grief Recovery with Wendy Sloneker at HeartHealingFromLoss.com. |

Episode 8: Over 2020? Yeah, me neither...
We are taught to rush ourselves through loss events... for many reasons. One might be that others are uncomfortable in witnessing grief and heartbreak. We may have also been taught to see feeling sad as behaving badly (it's not).
I'm certainly still not "over 2020" and all of the losses that came about during that year. And I share this here. Mostly for those who may be feeling alone or lonely in the same feeling... and partly so I can hear myself say it out loud. Nope. Still not over 2020. So, this episode is a bit of a check in with you... and a little insight into previews of what's to come regarding grief work, services, and programs for parents who want to Help Children with Loss. |
Episode 7: Finding yourself amidst grief
Relationship coach, enneagram master, and all-around excellent human Kathy Clayton joins me for a candid chat in this episode.

Episode 6: A surprising, pervasive, & undiscussed grief event... Moving
Moving house can bring about feelings of loss. It may seem easier to understand this if and when a move must be made.
But an intentional move can also bring about feelings of loss and sadness. Real estate expert Ericka Hardwick and I talk about moving and real estate and grief in this episode. Click & listen in... you might be surprised. |

Episode 1: Death is not required to grieve
It's early on in this podcast, so with the intention of offering clarity and getting (and staying) on the same page... let's get specific about a few terms. Getting clear about grief and loss, even though these are not sexy or fun topics, will help us to identify and move through a little easier... perhaps even a little quicker.
There may be an idea or two in this episode that shifts your thinking & perspective on loss...
