(4/11) OPEN TO HOPE

Colette Kenny Verdes' journey into grief work as a therapist is a powerful story, but it wasn't always a happy one. Her experiences have left her uniquely qualified and passionate about helping others navigate trauma. A full life with boundless love for others comes with grief. No one is immune. In this wonderfully rich conversation, we cover Colette's origin story before diving into the practices and rituals she and other grief counselors employ so that we may honor our loved ones while taking good care of ourselves.

***Dear listeners, pregnancy loss is integral to this episode's conversation. While we feel it is essential to make discussions around grief and recovery from pregnancy loss more common, we also understand that, for some, the topic is too painful.
