182. Navigating Husband Loss, Illness, and Healing with Lisa Keefauver

Drop me a message or voice note!In this episode of the Life With Grief Podcast, I’m joined by Grief Activist and Guide, Author, and Licensed Clinical Social Worker Lisa Keefauver for a deeply honest and expansive conversation about living with grief, trauma, and resilience.Lisa shares her personal and professional journey with grief, including the devastating loss of her husband and navigating a cancer diagnosis of her own. Together, we explore how grief reshapes identity, relationships, and the way we move through the world after loss.This episode dives into narrative therapy, the importance of holding space for grief without trying to fix it, and how community, compassion, and connection play a vital role in healing. Lisa also speaks to the often-overlooked truth that joy and grief can coexist, and how allowing both can be a powerful act of self-trust and survival.Whether you’re grieving the death of a loved one, navigating illness, or supporting someone through loss, this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to walk this path alone—and that healing doesn’t mean forgetting, fixing, or moving on.Connect with Lisa:www.lisakeefauver.comhttps://www.instagram.com/lisakeefauvermsw/AFGO with Lisa Keefauver on Substack"Grief is a Sneaky Bitch" book sold at independent bookstores and online booksellersLearn more about Letters of Light 💌✨ https://lossesbecomegains.com/lettersSupport the showLetters of Light 💌✨ https://lossesbecomegains.com/lettersSupport the podcast: https://buymeacoffee.com/lifewithgriefpodcast📖 Life Beyond Grief Substack: https://taraaccardo.substack.com/Connect with me:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegains/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lifewithgriefpodcast/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/losses.become.gainsWebsite: https://lossesbecomegains.com/Work with me one-on-one: https://lossesbecomegains.com/work-with-taraShop the LBG Daily Journal: https://lossesbecomegains.com/journalBy accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that the entire contents are the property of Tara Accardo, or used by Tara Accardo with permission.
