This week Sami is joined by renowned grief expert, therapist, and author, Claire Bidwell Smith. They start off by discussing some misconceptions about grief, how long people think grief lasts vs. how long it actually lasts, and feeling like you have unprocessed grief. They also discuss losing someone during Covid, experiencing anger, and how to access unprocessed grief. Then they discuss the 5 stages of grief, what acceptance actually feels like, and different types of grief such as the loss of a romantic relationship. They also talk about dreaming about a lost loved one, the first steps to take to process grief, and why it's important to find support.
